In the context that the private economic sector - the core of which is SMEs (small and medium enterprises) - is identified as the most important driving force for national economic growth, comprehensive digital banking models have become an important lever to help SMEs accelerate. HDBank has just been honored by The Asian Banker as "The best bank providing digital financial services for SMEs in Vietnam".
SME - Growth engine, still facing financial challenges
According to statistics, SMEs account for more than 98% of the total number of enterprises in Vietnam, playing a leading role in the private economic sector - a sector that is contributing more than 50% of GDP and over 30% of the state budget.
However, according to FiinGroup, the financing gap for SMEs in Vietnam is still huge - estimated at up to 24 billion USD, more than double the current lending level, and far exceeding the average of many developing economies. This shows that many businesses still have difficulty accessing development capital.
Faced with these challenges, over the years, HDBank has proactively expanded its credit scale and specialized solution ecosystem to accompany the SME community. Outstanding loans for this customer group always account for a high proportion of the total portfolio - a clear demonstration of HDBank's consistent commitment to supporting dynamic businesses with great growth potential.
Digital Strategy - The Key to Easier Access to Capital for SMEs
In addition to providing capital, HDBank also defines a digital strategy to serve SMEs as a long-term priority. The bank has applied modern technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), big data and a continuous digital process to shorten credit approval time, improve product personalization and help businesses access financial services quickly and flexibly.
Solutions such as automatic loan approval/funding on a digital platform, in-depth financial consulting, and payment - e-commerce integration have formed a digital financial ecosystem of HDBank dedicated to SMEs, helping businesses optimize operations, reduce costs and accelerate business.
