About Bank Central Asia (BCA) Singapore Representative Office
Bank Central Asia, known throughout Indonesia simply as BCA, maintains a representative office in Singapore at 360 Orchard Road, #06-06A, in the International Building, a short walk from Orchard MRT station. The Monetary Authority of Singapore lists the office's licence as active, classified as a Representative Office (Banking), a category that under MAS rules permits liaison work, market research, and feasibility studies but does not allow the office to transact banking business directly with customers in Singapore or to accept deposits and extend credit locally. Anyone looking to open a personal or business account should expect this office to function as a point of contact and information rather than a branch counter.
BCA itself traces its roots to 21 February 1957, when it began operating in Jakarta under the name NV Perseroan Dagang Dan Industrie Semarang Knitting Factory, with Liem Sioe Liong among its founders. The bank adopted the name Bank Central Asia in 1975 and received a foreign exchange licence in 1977, before expanding its branch network and building out online systems through the 1980s and an ATM network from 1990 onward. Like many Indonesian banks, BCA was taken over by the state's Indonesian Bank Restructuring Agency after the 1997 Asian financial crisis, was recapitalised in 1999, and returned to private hands through a public listing in 2000. Ownership later passed to the Djarum Group's investment arm. By 2022, BCA reported total assets above five thousand trillion rupiah and more than fifty thousand employees, making it Indonesia's largest private bank by assets.
For Indonesians living in Singapore, the representative office is best understood as a liaison point tied to BCA's home operations rather than a local banking service, useful for inquiries about accounts held in Indonesia or about doing business with BCA rather than as a substitute for a Singapore-licensed retail bank. No public phone number specific to the representative office was found during research for this listing, and hours were not published, so both fields are left blank pending confirmation.
