The bank was also lauded for its policies on social welfare, technology investment and development, environmental protection, and building a green economic community that have contributed to promoting a fair and civilised society, a modern and sustainable business environment and for its contributions to promoting the image of Việt Nam and Vietnamese internationally.

For more than 30 years since its incorporation, the bank has provided quality products and services to the community, serving a large number of people around the country, improving the quality of their life and ushering in a better future.

In addition to a unique eco-system including banking - consumer finance, retail, aviation, energy, telecommunications, and real estate, HDBank has also set its sights on becoming a leading bank in the retail, consumer and SME segments comprising nearly 10 million customers.

Amid a trend of deepening international integration, HDBank has been investing heavily in technology and human resources and connecting with partners and financial institutions in ASEAN +3 countries and the others around the world to enhance business co-operation and contribute to Việt Nam’s economic integration.

It pioneered specialised products and services for foreign enterprises in Việt Nam, including the Japan Desk and Korea Desk programmes, while Vietjet Air has actively promoted trade by air with the Indian market of 1.1 billion.
