Unraveling Actions of Blocking and Confiscation of Debtor Cash In the State Receivable Management System: A Legal Study

In the banking system, the granting of credit to debtor customers is often accompanied by guarantees in the form of fixed assets or moving as a form of security for creditors. This guarantee aims to ensure credit returns and provide confidence that the debtor will fulfill its obligations. However, not all debtor customers are able to pay off their obligations on time, resulting in bad loans. This condition resulted in the emergence of an effort to block and confiscate the debtor's assets, including cash stored in the bank.

The Importance of Understanding the Legal Aspects of Blocking and Confiscation

The implementation of blocking and confiscation of debtor cash in the context of the State Receivable Management System (SPPN) in Indonesia is a complex process that requires a deep understanding of the legal aspects involved. This article aims to examine the legal aspects related to the implementation of the blocking and confiscation of debtor cash, including the mechanisms, obstacles faced, and efforts that can be made to overcome obstacles in the process.

Mechanisms of Blocking and Confiscation of Debtor Cash

The blocking and confiscation of debtor cash in the bank was carried out by the Auction Officer (PUPN) through the State Assets and Auction Service Office (KP2LN) under the Ministry of Finance. This process begins with a court decision which states that the debtor has failed to pay off its obligations.

Based on research data conducted at the Medan KP2LN, the blocking and confiscation of debtor cash does not conflict with the provisions of the bank confidentiality. Blocking and confiscation of debtor assets that do not have good faith in paying off debt are carried out according to procedures and do not violate customer privacy.

Understanding the Obstacles Faced in the Implementation of Blocking and Confiscation

There are several obstacles that are often faced in the process of blocking and confiscating debtors, including:

Limited data and information: Creditors/banks, which are bound by bank confidentiality, are often reluctant to provide information about the existence and amount of cash belonging to the debtor that is stored in the bank.
*Efforts to avoid debtors: Debtors often try to avoid and cover up the existence of their assets, including cash at the bank, to avoid blocking and confiscation.
*Lack of legal breakthroughs: PUPN and KP2LN, in some cases, tend to be inactive in making efforts to find data and information about the existence of debtor cash in the bank.

Efforts to Overcome Obstacles in the Implementation of Blocking and Confiscation

To overcome the existing obstacles, PUPN and KP2LN need to make several efforts, including:

*Increasing coordination: PUPN and KP2LN must be intensive and active in establishing coordination with banks, both private and government, in their working areas. This coordination is important to get the information needed about the existence and amount of debtor cash.
*Socialization and Education: Conducting socialization and education to banks about the importance of cooperation in supporting efforts to collect state receivables and provide relevant information.
*Legal breakthrough: PUPN and KP2LN must be more proactive in making legal breakthroughs, such as studying and utilizing legal gaps that make it possible to get information about debtor assets, without violating bank confidentiality.

The Role of Bank Indonesia and Legal Protection

The role of Bank Indonesia (BI) is very important in the process of blocking and confiscating. BI gives written permission to the implementing bank to provide information and data to PUPN and KP2LN, so that the bank obtains legal protection in terms of customer information confidentiality.

Conclusion

Implementation of Blocking and Confiscation of Debtor Cash In the framework of SPPN is a complex process and has several obstacles. Increasing coordination, socialization, legal breakthroughs, and support from Bank Indonesia is very important to overcome obstacles and achieve optimal results in the context of restoring state receivables.
