Having a legal entity in Indonesia is an important step for many individuals and companies. Using the name of a legal entity in applying for property financing credit provides various benefits, such as:
- Separateness of Wealth: A legal entity has wealth that is separate from the personal wealth of its owners. This means that the owners are not liable for the debts and obligations of the legal entity.
- Trust: Having a legal entity can increase trust from customers, business partners, and investors.
- Ease of Doing Business: A legal entity can make it easier to conduct business, such as opening bank accounts, applying for loans, and bidding for tenders.
