Tugu Pratama On Sale

The State Assets Management Corporation (PPA) has planned to sell its shares at some insurance companies to met the revenue target of IDR1 trillion for the state budget of 2007.

PPA has got the shares at some insurance companies like PT Tugu Pratama Indonesia, PT Tugu Reasuransi Indonesia, PT Asuransi Tugu Kresna Pratama, PT Asuransi Putra Mandiri and PT Asuransi Jiwa Tugu Mandiri.

PT Tugu Pratama is a general insurance company with the specialty of oil industry. But since 2005 the company has also jumped into sharia business. Starting 2007, PT Tugu Pratama will jump into retail market after it has controlled 16% of corporate market.

PPA has got the shares of the company from IBRA in 2004. IBRA got the 17.5% shares of Tugu Pratama from Bob Hasan. The process of taking over the shares was time consuming as Bob Hasan has claimed he just owned 3.5% of the 35% shares recorded at the insurance company. The rest 31.5%, he said, belong to Nusamba Foundation.

Tugu Pratama controls 100% shares at PT Tugu Pratama Interindo (TP Interindo), the owner of 30% shares of PT Tugu Reasuransi Indonesia (Tugu Re). PPA also holds 30% shares at the reinsurance company. The other shareholders of Tugu-Re are Bambang Trihatmojo (20%) and the Pension Fund of Pertamina (20%).

TP Interindo also own 10% shares at PT Tugu Mandiri Life Insurance in which PPA controls 30% shares, and Pension Funds of Pertamina and Timah hold 40% and 20% shares respectively.
PT Tugu Reasuransi Indonesia has been the second largest reinsurance company in Indonesia. The company has had some overseas exposures and starting this year the company has been in sharia business.
