Fikih Ramadhan Discusses the Importance of Insurance and Future Protection on the Real Action Podcast
Fikih Ramadhan, a young entrepreneur and active in the Public Health sector of DPW Pemuda Perindo DKI Jakarta, expressed the importance of having insurance to ensure a safe future. He conveyed this statement in the Real Action Podcast with the theme “Protecting Yourself and Family’s Future through Insurance.”
In the podcast, Fikih conveys how essential self-protection and life security is through insurance. He explained that insurance includes various types, such as Life Insurance, Critical Illness, Health Insurance, and other rider products, which aim to provide a sense of security for the Indonesian people. Although living without risk is impossible, having insurance provides the necessary protection.
Fikih noted that young Indonesians tend to pay more attention to BPJS Health. However, he also highlighted the many private companies that offer insurance with certain advantages. For young people, especially those who are still single, having health insurance is considered important. This is because the risk of unexpected events can drain all the results of their hard work throughout their lives.
In this context, Fikih suggests that setting aside a small portion of income, for example 10 percent, or of daily expenses, around 20 percent, can be used to meet insurance premiums. This can be done without disrupting daily living costs.
By discussing insurance as an investment for the future, Fikih Ramadhan hopes that young Indonesians can better understand the importance of protecting themselves and their families. Through this understanding, it is hoped that people can make smarter financial decisions and plan for a safer future.

AAUI Explains Important Points in POJK Credit Insurance which Fixes Premium Rates
The Indonesian General Insurance Association (AAUI) revealed several crucial points contained in the Financial Services Authority Regulation (POJK) Number 20 of 2023 concerning Insurance Products Linked to Credit, or what is known as POJK credit insurance.
AAUI Executive Director, Bern Dwyanto, highlighted that with the risk sharing scheme in the credit insurance POJK, there has been an improvement in premium rates so that they become more competitive.
“Regulations need to be strengthened, including improving the governance of credit insurance, implementing risk sharing between insurance companies and creditors, improving the process of setting premiums, underwriting and handling claims,” he explained to Kontan.co.id on Tuesday (2/2). 1).
Bern also emphasized that insurance companies can now access data related to creditors and debtors insured by insurance companies. This is expected to encourage creditors to always carry out careful credit analysis.
POJK credit insurance also regulates acquisition costs which are now limited to a maximum of 10%. In addition, the coverage period is also limited to only 5 years.
“Even though the insured credit has a term of more than 5 years, the maximum term covered by the insurance company is 5 years, but can be extended further,” he added.
Bern explained that POJK credit insurance also regulates that claims submitted by banks to insurance companies must be truly in a bad condition.
“So if you are still in a non-performing loan (NPL), a claim cannot be submitted; the condition must be in a traffic jam,” he said.
Furthermore, Bern added that so far credit insurance has been the largest contributor to premiums in general insurance after property and vehicle insurance. In his view, this POJK will improve credit insurance performance and support the banking sector.
“We hope that this POJK will make the insurance industry healthier and can help transfer risks from the banking sector in a reasonable manner which is covered by insurance companies with credit insurance products,” he said.

The Impact of the Sale of Jiwasraya Share Portfolio on the JCI
PT Asuransi Jiwasraya, which is on the list of BUMNs that will be dissolved by the Ministry of BUMN, plans to sell its share portfolio. The question is, will this step have an impact on the Composite Stock Price Index (IHSG)? According to the Director of Trade and Member Regulation of the Indonesian Stock Exchange (BEI), Irvan Susandy, the sale of Jiwasraya’s share portfolio will not significantly affect the performance of the JCI. Irvan explained that the current JCI movement is more influenced by the movement of LQ45 shares.
“So I feel that even if there is a decrease, it won’t be much. Because the drivers are on LQ45,” said Irvan at the BEI Building, Jakarta, Tuesday (2/1/2024). Irvan emphasized that the current JCI movement is very dependent on LQ45, which is dominated by the top stocks on the Stock Exchange.

Floods Submerge Basement of Serpong Garden Apartment, Dozens of Vehicles Submerged. Can Vehicle Insurance Cover Losses?
The heavy rain that hit Tangerang on Wednesday (27-12-2023) caused an emergency situation in the basement of the Serpong Garden Apartment. The submerged water means dozens of cars and motorbikes have to wait for evacuation or for the water to recede, raising the question, can vehicle insurance cover losses in this situation?
Vehicle insurance, especially for motorized vehicles, can actually provide protection against compensation for vehicles damaged by natural disasters. However, before submitting a claim, it is important to ensure that the vehicle insurance you have includes risk extensions.
This rule is generally found in standard motor vehicle insurance policies in CHAPTER II concerning Exceptions. Article 3 paragraph 3.3.2 states that this insurance does not cover loss, damage and/or costs related to motorized vehicles as well as legal liability to third parties caused directly or indirectly by natural disasters such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, hurricanes, storms, tsunamis, hail, floods, waterlogging, landslides, or other geological or meteorological phenomena.
However, if the vehicle insurance policy has extended coverage for natural disasters such as tsunamis, landslides, earthquakes, floods, and the like, then all damage caused by these natural disasters will be covered by the insurance.
Head of PR, Marcomm, & Events Astra Insurance, L Iwan Pranoto, suggested that vehicles submerged in floods immediately report to Garda Siaga via the myGarda application or Garda Access 24 Hours. The insurance team will help customers to check and evaluate the damage. It is important not to try to start the engine of a vehicle that has just been submerged in floodwater and wait for the insurance team to carry out a thorough inspection for the safety of the driver.
