JAKARTA — PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (BRI) is set to distribute its cash dividend for the 2025 financial year, with payments scheduled to commence on May 8, 2026. Investors aiming to secure their share of these payouts should pay close attention to the crucial dates established by the company.
According to the official information disclosure, the last day for trading shares with dividend rights (cum dividend) on both the regular and negotiation markets is April 20, 2026. Following this, the definitive deadline for recording eligible shareholders (recording date) has been set for April 22, 2026. This means that to be entitled to receive the dividend, investors must hold BRI shares before this crucial recording date.
This year, Bank Rakyat Indonesia is distributing a substantial total dividend of Rp 52.1 trillion, translating to Rp 346 per share. The company had previously disbursed an interim dividend of Rp 20.6 trillion in January 2026. Consequently, the remaining dividend to be paid out amounts to Rp 31.47 trillion, equivalent to Rp 209 per share, a significant return for its dedicated shareholders.
Hery Gunardi, BRI‘s President Director, emphasized that this generous dividend distribution underscores the company’s consistently strong performance. He highlighted that this robust financial health is primarily driven by the sustained strengthening of the micro, small, and medium-sized enterprise (MSME) segment, which remains BRI‘s core business. “This dividend distribution is based on the company’s continued positive performance, supported by the strengthening of the MSME segment as BRI’s core business,” he stated on Thursday (April 16, 2026).
Beyond providing attractive returns for investors, this sizable dividend payment also has the potential to significantly stimulate economic activity and money circulation within society. This impact is particularly notable given that a substantial portion of BRI‘s shareholders are domestic investors, including a considerable number of retail participants, further boosting local economies.
For investors planning to participate, here is the important BRI dividend payment schedule:
- Cum Dividend (Regular and Negotiation Market): April 20, 2026
- Ex Dividend Date: April 21, 2026
- Recording Date (Shareholder Eligibility): April 22, 2026
- Dividend Payment Date: May 8, 2026
In light of this timeline, all prospective and current investors are strongly advised to carefully monitor their share purchase and holding dates to ensure they do not miss out on their rightful claim to the distributed dividends.
