Speaking at a hybrid conference held by the State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) in Hanoi, the leader stressed that the sector should operate transparently and healthily, with liquidity flowing smoothly in any circumstances.

He asked the central bank to keep the exchange rates and interest rates, as well as inflation control and economic growth balanced, and ensure reasonable and effective credit growth, while contributing to removing difficulties in production and business.
 
Inspections and supervisions should be stepped up to make the system run transparently and safely, he said, calling for efforts to accelerate the restructuring of credit institutions in parallel with bad debt settlement.

The project on restructuring credit institutions in combination with bad debt settlement in 2021-2025 needs to be implemented drastically and effectively, the leader continued.

 
The leader also stressed the need to boost digital transformation, as well as the banking system’s role in green development, circular economy, digital economy and innovation.
 
The sector should closely coordinate with ministries, agencies and localities to fulfill socio-economic tasks, with priorities given to maintaining macro-economic stability, reigning in inflation, spurring growth and ensuring major economic balances, the PM said.
 
To that end, he suggested flexibly rolling out monetary policy tools and combining fiscal policies with others, saying the banking sector should work to improve its forecasting capacity and prepare for changes in the domestic and international situation.
 
Perfecting relevant institutions, mechanisms and policies will create a concerted legal corridor for the safe, healthy, effective and sustainable development of the sector, he noted.
