YCP in Numbers
Key Challenges We Address
Bridging the Gap Between Access and Financial Literacy
- Financial inclusion reached 75.0% in 2024, yet financial literacy was only 65.4%, leaving many consumers unable to assess digital financial products.
- YCP combines customer research, segmentation and journey design to shape accessible products, trust-building education and distribution models.
Scaling Digital Lending With Sounder Risk Management
- Fintech lending outstanding balances exceeded IDR 77 trillion in 2024, while credit risk and borrower over-indebtedness remain key concerns for platforms.
- YCP helps lenders strengthen credit strategies through portfolio diagnostics, risk-model refinement, collections design and sustainable growth planning.
Responding to Tighter Rules and Market Expectations
- Indonesia had 97 licensed fintech-lending providers at end-2024, operating under increasingly rigorous expectations for capital, governance and consumer protection.
- YCP translates regulatory shifts into practical operating priorities, supporting compliance roadmaps, governance models and market-entry or expansion decisions.
Protecting Fast-Growing Digital Payment Ecosystems
- QRIS surpassed 55 million users and 32 million merchants by mid-2024, expanding payment access but also increasing exposure to fraud and cyber threats.
- YCP supports resilient growth by assessing fraud risks, redesigning controls and customer journeys, and prioritizing investments in secure digital operations.
