In addition, other activities also resulted in positive business performance of the bank. In particular, services revenue showed outstanding growth of VNĐ727 billion, a year-on-year increase of 27.3 per cent, accounting for 23.4 per cent of total revenue.
In the first six months of this year, Sacombank handled bad debts worth VNĐ845 billion.
Sacombank will focus on restructuring and is committed to handle VNĐ20 trillion of bad debts until the end of 2017, Dương Công Minh, chairman of Sacombank’s board of directors, said.
Minh also shared the bank’s orientation in the implementation of the restructuring, including organisational and labour force restructuring with stability as the main aim; focusing on business development on the basis of promoting Sacombank’s strengths in network, people, brands, products and business strategies; and rearranging the operation of the transaction network and subsidiaries.
At the end of June, Sacombank held its annual shareholder meeting, during which Dương Công Minh was appointed new chairman and Nguyễn Đức Thạch Diễm was made acting general director afterwards. — VNS
