For instance, as a company's assets grow, many business owners find themselves puzzled as they cannot optimize their idle cash effectively. Meanwhile, they are also hesitant to take risks with company funds.

The Bibit Bisnis feature was introduced to help companies optimize their surplus funds by investing in high-quality mutual fund products from various top Investment Managers in Indonesia.

By investing in mutual funds, companies can achieve returns of up to 3%-7% on their idle cash. If there is a sudden need for business funds, investments can be withdrawn at any time without penalties. All of this can be done without a minimum placement amount, transaction fees, or administrative fees at Bibit.

At the end of March 2023, Bibit introduced Bibit Plus to make the purchase Fixed Rate (FR) Government Bonds easier for the entire community. In terms of security, FR Bonds is a safe investment instrument as the Indonesian government guarantees 100% of both principal and coupon payments.

Unlike deposits that are guaranteed by the Deposit Insurance Corporation (LPS) and have a maximum limit of IDR 2 billion per bank per customer, the investment amount in FR Bonds is guaranteed by the state without a maximum limit.

"In terms of price, Bibit are also highly competitive. The purchase price is lower, allowing investors to obtain higher yields. The selling price is also higher, resulting in a narrower bid-ask spread. Moreover, there are no hidden fees for investing in FR Bonds at Bibit," William concluded.
