In a groundbreaking initiative, PT BAT Instrumen Bank Internasional has announced its collaboration with the Government of Indonesia to explore the use of Carpeaurum, a gold-backed digital financial system, aimed at stabilizing and strengthening the Indonesian Rupiah (IDR).
The project is led by Datuk Sulaiman, Chief Executive Officer of BAT Bank, alongside Prof. Judge (Dr.) Navin C. Naidu, the institution’s Principal Legal Advisor and Sole Authorised Patent Holder of Carpeaurum, a global financial innovation recognised under the Global United Natives Charter.
Carpeaurum—derived from the Latin phrase “Seize the Gold”—represents an asset-backed monetary framework secured by verified inground gold reserves. The system is designed to protect national currencies from inflation and global market speculation, offering a foundation of real value rather than debt-based valuation.
“This is about restoring integrity and sovereignty to financial systems through tangible wealth,” said Prof. Naidu, whose legal and economic counsel has guided the bank’s transition into asset-based digital instruments. “Carpeaurum ensures stability through transparency, compliance, and intrinsic worth.”
Datuk Sulaiman affirmed that BAT Bank’s collaboration aligns with Indonesia’s long-term financial strategy, especially amid plans to transform Bali into a regional financial hub. “We are working toward innovative financial solutions that empower the national economy and position Indonesia as a global model of responsible, gold-backed financial management,” he said.
The Carpeaurum Initiative is expected to attract institutional investors, sovereign funds, and regional trade financiers, reinforcing Indonesia’s position as a financial innovation hub within ASEAN.
