In Indonesia, the delegation met long-term partner PT. Asia Sinergi Solusindo (Assindo), which specializes in ATM outsourcing and managed banking services. During the visit, GRGBanking signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Assindo to further strengthen collaboration in digital banking, smart branch transformation, and localized financial technology services.
Under the agreement, both sides will jointly expand the deployment of intelligent banking terminals and next-generation self-service solutions across Indonesian financial institutions, while enhancing localized delivery, technical support, and market development capabilities.
GRGBanking solutions are already deployed across several Indonesian financial institutions through Assindo, helping banks improve accessibility, operational efficiency, and customer service. In 2025, the partnership successfully secured and delivered multiple banking projects in Indonesia, with more than 200 intelligent terminals deployed to local banks including Bank Kalteng and Bank Maluku Malut.
Discussions during the visit also focused on smart branch transformation, equipment optimization and the expansion of AI-enabled digital banking capabilities tailored to local market demand.
“The strategic partnership with Assindo reflects our long-term commitment to the Indonesian market,” Mr. Xia said. “By combining local expertise with advanced financial technologies, we aim to help banks accelerate digital transformation and deliver more intelligent and inclusive financial services.”
