The Bank of Java (Шаблон:Lang-nl, abbreviated as DJB) was a note-issuing bank in the Dutch East Indies, founded in 1828, and nationalized in 1951 by the government of Indonesia to become the newly independent country’s central bank, later renamed Bank Indonesia. For more than a century, the Bank of Java was the central institution of the Dutch East Indies’ financial system, alongside the “big three” commercial banks (the Netherlands Trading Society, the Nederlandsch-Indische Handelsbank, and the Nederlandsch-Indische Escompto Maatschappij).[1]Шаблон:Rp It was both a note-issuing bank and a commercial bank.

Background

The first bank founded in the Indonesian archipelago was the Шаблон:Lang, established in 1746, to support trading activity. In 1752, it was renamed Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:Lit), and was given a mandate to extend loans to employees of the Dutch East India Company. In 1818, that institution closed as a consequence of financial crisis.[2]

Dutch colonial period

King William I of the Netherlands granted the right to create a private bank in the Indies in 1826, which was named Шаблон:Lang. It was founded on Шаблон:Date, and later became the bank of issue of the Dutch East Indies, issuing and regulating the Netherlands Indies gulden.

In 1829, it opened branch offices in Semarang and Surabaya. Later branch offices opened in Padang (1864), Makassar (1864), Cirebon (1866), Solo (1867), Pasuruan (1867), Yogyakarta (1879), Pontianak (1906), Bengkalis (1907), Medan (1907), Banjarmasin (1907), Tanjungbalai (1908), Tanjungpura (1908), Bandung (1909), Palembang (1909), Manado (1910), Malang (1916), Kutaraja / Banda Aceh (1918), Kediri (1923), Pematang Siantar (1923), and Madiun (1928).[2]

Until 1891, the DJB was represented in the mainland Netherlands by the Netherlands Trading Society. That year, it opened an office in Amsterdam, which in 1922 was converted into a subsidiary known as Шаблон:Lang or Шаблон:Lang.[3] Some time later, DJB opened an office in New York.[4]

Under the Japanese occupation of the Dutch East Indies during World War II, the occupation authorities closed the Bank of Java and all other Dutch and Western banks in March 1942, and endeavored to seize as much as possible of their assets.Шаблон:R They replaced it with an ad hoc central bank for occupied Indonesia, named Шаблон:Ill (Шаблон:Lang-ja, Шаблон:Lit). The Bank of Java could only reopen after the surrender of Japan in the late summer of 1945.

Nationalization and aftermath

The Bank of Java was nationalized by the Sukarno government in 1951, and renamed Bank Indonesia on Шаблон:Date. By that time, Europeans still represented four-fifths of the Bank's employees.[5]

In 1962, Bank Indonesia moved to a new head office building. Its former main building on Station Square in Jakarta was left to deteriorate. It was renovated in the 2000s, and repurposed as Bank Indonesia Museum, which opened on Шаблон:Date.

In 1966, the bank's affiliate in Amsterdam became the Шаблон:Ill, later renamed Шаблон:Lang. It was eventually liquidated in 2008.[3]

Buildings

The main building of the Bank of Java in Batavia was erected in 1909, on a design by Eduard Cuypers and Шаблон:Ill, on the location of the former city hospital. The building was comprehensively remodeled in 1926, was a new façade on Station Square.[4] The head offices of the three large banks were built on adjacent lots in the 1920s and 1930s, namely the Nederlandsch-Indische Escompto Maatschappij to the north, the Netherlands Trading Society to the south, and the Nederlandsch-Indische Handelsbank to the northeast.

The Amsterdam office was opened in 1891, at 60 Reguliersdwarsstraat, in a suite of offices hosted by the Hollandsche Hypotheekbank. It moved to Keizersgracht 668 in April 1892. In 1920, DJB expanded to the nearby building at Keizersgracht 664, and in 1937–1939, the bank erected a new office building on numbers 664-666, designed in 1936 by the architecture firm of Шаблон:Ill and Jakob van der Linden. The successor entity, Indover Bank, remained there until 1992, when it moved to Stadhouderskade.[3]
