JAKARTA, August 27, 2026 – PT Bank JTrust Indonesia Tbk (J Trust Bank) officially began construction of its new headquarters, the J Trust Bank City Tower, with a groundbreaking ceremony held on Thursday, August 27, 2026, in the Tanah Abang area of Central Jakarta. Strategically located in the heart of Jakarta, near the Hotel Indonesia (HI) Roundabout, the J Trust Bank City Tower will rise 24 stories and serve as a key milestone in J Trust Bank’s journey of transformation and growth in Indonesia. The construction of this new headquarters reflects J Trust Bank’s confidence in the long-term prospects of the Indonesian economy, while reaffirming the Bank’s commitment to continuously strengthen its presence and contribution amid the development of Jakarta’s business center.
Strengthening Japan–Indonesia Collaboration
The construction of the J Trust Bank City Tower also holds strategic significance in strengthening business and investment ties between Japan and Indonesia. The building project has been entrusted to PT Tatamulia Nusantara Indah (TATA), a company in which Toda Corporation—one of Japan’s leading construction firms—holds a 67% stake. This collaboration is a crucial part of the J Trust Bank City Tower project and reflects the synergy between Japanese experience and expertise and the dynamism and potential of the Indonesian market. As such, the J Trust Bank City Tower is positioned not only as a new headquarters but also as a symbol of the increasingly close business collaboration between the two countries.
Attended by Government Leaders and Japanese Representatives
The groundbreaking ceremony for the J Trust Bank City Tower was attended by a number of distinguished guests, including the Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia, Airlangga Hartarto, as well as representatives from the Japanese Embassy in Indonesia. From J Trust Bank’s management, the event was also attended by J Trust Bank’s President Director, Ritsuo Fukadai, along with other members of management and invited guests. On this occasion, Ritsuo Fukadai stated that the construction of the J Trust Bank City Tower marks an important milestone in J Trust Bank’s journey in Indonesia. “The construction of the J Trust Bank City Tower is a very important milestone in our journey in Indonesia. It reflects our strong confidence in the future of Indonesia’s economy, while also demonstrating J Trust Bank’s long-term commitment to continued growth, innovation, and providing even greater value to our customers.”
Part of the Transformation and Rebranding Strategy
More than just infrastructure development, the J Trust Bank City Tower is part of J Trust Bank’s strategic initiative to carry out the company’s transformation and rebranding strategy. Ritsuo Fukadai emphasized that this rebranding process is part of a broader effort to strengthen business strategy, increase brand awareness, and solidify J Trust Bank’s position as a trusted financial partner. “More than that, this project is the first step in J Trust Bank’s rebranding strategy. This is not merely a change in appearance or logo, but rather a process to strengthen our business strategy, increase brand awareness, and solidify our position as a trusted financial partner.” According to him, J Trust Bank’s future growth is expected to make an increasingly significant contribution to the development of Jakarta and other cities in Indonesia, while also supporting the economic activities of the community and the business sector.
A Future Hub for Growth and Collaboration
Once completed, the J Trust Bank City Tower is expected to be more than just a headquarters. The building will serve as a symbol of J Trust Bank's commitment to growth, transformation, and sustainability in conducting business in Indonesia. The new headquarters is also expected to support the expansion of business activities, strengthen relationships with customers and partners, and open opportunities for new collaborations in the future.
Through the construction of the J Trust Bank City Tower, J Trust Bank reaffirms its long-term commitment to continuing to grow alongside Indonesia, providing increasingly valuable financial services and solutions, and strengthening its role as part of Indonesia’s business and economic ecosystem. The J Trust Bank City Tower symbolizes J Trust Bank’s new direction: growing, transforming, and building the future together with Indonesia.
