Vietnam’s engine for MSME credit growth: HDBank

Vietnam has a thriving micro, small and medium enterprise (MSME) sector, that employs 50% of the adult working population, and has helped raise over 40 million people out of poverty since the 1990s However, low banking penetration rates mean many small businesses rely on informal loans, often from money lenders

This flourishing market for “black credit” can push people back into poverty, rather than raise them out of it HDBank, a top-tier Vietnamese commercial and retail bank, is helping to tackle this problem with a suite of innovative digital products and a growing agent network that already covers all 63 cities and provinces
