August 19, 2018 by vietnamnews Leave a Comment

Việt Nam has seven State-owned banks, the biggest of which are Vietcombank, Vietinbank, Agribank and BIDV. — Photo Vietnam Finance Compiled by Thiên Lý According to statistics from the State Bank of Việt Nam (SBV), as of May, State-owned banks’ combined equity was VNĐ252.472 trillion (US$10.83 billion), down 0.86 per cent. Other lenders’ equity was VNĐ315.340 trillion ($13.5 billion) after rising by 8.5 per cent. Việt Nam has seven State-owned banks, the biggest of which are Vietcombank, Vietinbank, Agribank and BIDV.

In 2015, the SBV bought the banks and this year assigned the four biggest State-owned banks to restructure them to improve their liquidity and management.

Central bank requests control on foreign currency loans

August 15, 2018 by ven Leave a Comment

Vietnam clears decks for foreign acquisition of weak banks

August 9, 2018 by vnexpress Leave a Comment

The government would sell banks it has acquired to foreign investors based on the Law on Credit Institutions, he told a forum on mergers and acquisitions held in HCMC on Wednesday. On the list are Oceanbank, Vietnam Construction Bank, and Global Petro Commercial Joint Stock Bank. Many investors have expressed interest in this new policy, he said. The restructuring of the financial-banking industry has helped reduce its bad debts from 10.08 percent in early 2016 to 6.9 percent last June, and the government continues to encourage the acquisition of small banks and credit institutions by large banks. “The number of credit institutions in Vietnam is still too high and we need to restructure the system,” Hue said. The government plans to let the Vietnam Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (Agribank), the only 100 percent state-owned lender, launch an initial public offering next year.

March 26, 2018 by bizhub Leave a Comment

In December Hồ Chí Minh Development Joint Stock Commercial Bank (HDBank) had sold stakes to more than 76 foreign investors before listing.— Photo ndh.vn Since last year there has been a churn in the banking sector with some foreign investors selling their stakes in local banks and others buying in. France’s BNP Paribas, HSBC and Australia’s Commonwealth Bank have been among those pulling out. ANZ sold its retail banking division to Korea’s Shinhan Bank and Standard Chartered Bank sold its entire 8.75 per cent stake in Asia Commercial Bank. Analysts said foreign banks are merely pulling out to invest in more profitable markets. Some pointed out that Asian banks which enter Viet Nam seem to be more successful than their western counterparts. They attributed this to their better understanding of the local market and business culture.

February 17, 2018 by robert Leave a Comment

As Viet Nam struggles under the weight of its bad debts, it has improved its legal framework to handle the situation. By issuing a resolution (42/2017/QH14), the first-ever on the settlement of non-performing loans (NPLs), it has adopted a pragmatic solution to handle bad debts. CEO of HSBC Bank Viet Nam, Pham Hong Hai, spoke to Viet Nam News reporter Nguyen Linh Anh about the effectiveness of the resolution.Last year the Government issued a resolution on the settlement of non-performing loans to pilot the settling of the bad debt of credit institutions.
