An analysis of Indonesian commercial banks reveals that while there is 100% compliance with mandatory sustainability reporting under POJK 51, the quality of these reports lacks the technical depth required by international standards like the TCFD. Between 2019 and 2021, ESG portfolios reached USD 3.6 trillion, but over 70% of this was directed toward MSME financing rather than green activities. Private banks show a higher proportion of green finance (41%) compared to state-owned banks (23%), yet the total commercial bank contribution meets only 9% of the USD 285 billion needed for Indonesia's 2030 climate goals. Significant gaps exist in risk management, with fewer than 15% of banks integrating climate-related risks into their overall risk frameworks, and none incorporating climate impacts into their financial statements.
