Indonesia has made significant progress in financial inclusion over the last 5 years. In 2017, the World Bank reported Indonesia had the biggest account ownership increase in the East and Asia Pacific Region between 2014 and 2017, up from 36 percent to 49 percent. Additionally, the second National Survey on Financial Literacy and Inclusion (SNLIK) that was conducted by the Financial Services Authority (OJK) in 2016 revealed that the financial inclusion indices stood at 67.82 percent. That is about 8 percentage points higher than in 2013.
