Edwin Ng, Chairman and CEO for KinerjaPay Corp. commented, "These three multi-finance companies are leaders in Indonesia's motorcycle sector, which was estimated to include 80 million motorcycles from various brand in in 2015. Exposure to their customers provides KinerjaPay with a substantial opportunity to build our own member base."
Ng went on to say, "Multi-finance companies are less regulated than traditional banks, therefore tend to generate higher yields than conventional bank loans. However, as they cannot accept deposits, they rely on borrowing and bond issuances for their capital and therefore their cost of capital is higher. Participating in the KinerjaPay platform not only facilitates their ability to collect payments, but should make it easier for them to attract customers, both of which would improve their return on capital."
