BANDUNG, itb.ac.id- On Monday (12/20/10), ITB and PT Bank CIMB Niaga signed a deal that gives authority to the bank in managing ITB's financial matters, including virtual account facility and BizChannel. The deal was signed by Vice Rector of Communications, Partnership, and Alumni, Prof. Dr. Hasanudding Z. Abidin and CIMB Niaga Business Banking Director, Handoyo Soebali.
As initial step, tuition fee payment can be done through the CIMB Niaga virtual account. The following collaboration will include online payment system for academic and non-academic matters. The collaboration will soon give birth to a new top-up card system that can be used in various ITB facilities such as library, photocopy, parking, and many others.
Prof. Hasanuddin also stressed the importance of building business partnerships between the campus and private companies. "If we want to move forward, ITB has to collaborate with other parties such as private financial institutions," he said.
The deal is hoped to be able to reinforce the current partnership that both parties have. The ITB side would be able to provide better financial services and products to its students and staff. On the other hand, the CIMB Niaga side would be able to answer the financial needs of its customers which are the ITB students and staff.
