The Management Study Program of Universitas Bunda Mulia, through the Excellent Community of Management (XCM), in collaboration with the Accounting Study Program and Digital Business Study Program, successfully organized the ORASI (Investment Talk for the Nation) Goes to UBM event in partnership with the Directorate General of Budget Financing and Risk Management (DJPPR) and CNN Indonesia. This event was held onsite at The UBM Grand Auditorium, Universitas Bunda Mulia Jakarta, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM WIB. The program began with several quizzes as ice-breaking activities for the participants. The event officially started with a solemn rendition of the Indonesian national anthem, Indonesia Raya, sung together.
The event continued with opening remarks by Mrs. Kandi Sofia Senastri Dahlan, S.E., M.B.A., Ph.D., Vice Rector for Academic Affairs of Universitas Bunda Mulia. Before the main program began, a ceremonial exchange of souvenirs took place between the Ministry of Finance, represented by Mr. Ubaidi Socheh Hamidi, Secretary of the Directorate General of Budget Financing and Risk Management, and Universitas Bunda Mulia, represented by Mrs. Kandi Sofia Senastri Dahlan, S.E., M.B.A., Ph.D.
In the first session, Mr. Ubaidi Socheh Hamidi presented the topic “DJPPR Stories.” He discussed Indonesia’s targets for 2045, the state budget (APBN), state budget financing, and invited the audience to contribute to building a better Indonesia by managing finances wisely and investing.
The second session featured a Coaching Clinic segment with Mr. Deni Ridwan, Director of Government Securities at the Directorate General of Budget Financing and Risk Management, and Mrs. Brenda Andrina, a Financial Enthusiast, moderated by Mrs. Sarah Ariantie. In this session, Mr. Deni Ridwan emphasized the importance of financial literacy for Indonesia’s younger generation. Beyond personal financial well-being, financial literacy can positively impact the nation. He also discussed initiatives by the government, such as the sale of retail government bonds (SBN Ritel), and provided information on the ongoing ORI024. He encouraged young people to become financially and investment literate.
Mrs. Brenda Andrina, as a financial planner, shared fundamental insights on investing and managing finances effectively to secure a bright future for the younger generation. She also provided practical solutions for financial allocation, recommending that income be divided into specific portions: 50% for necessities, 30% for wants, and 20% for investments.
After the Coaching Clinic, a lively Q&A session followed, with participants enthusiastically asking various questions about investments. The event then proceeded with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia and Universitas Bunda Mulia, marking their agreement to collaborate on future activities.
The event concluded with joy and gratitude for the knowledge shared during both sessions. This concludes the ORASI event with DJPPR, which aims to raise financial literacy awareness among the younger generation. See you at the next event! (tan, tnn)
