At the working session, leaders of the State Bank of Vietnam’s Regional Branch 2 discussed tasks and solutions to effectively implement Directive No. 01 and Directive No. 02 issued by the State Bank of Vietnam. These efforts are expected to help ensure the effective implementation of monetary and credit policies, support businesses, and improve management efficiency, thereby contributing to local economic growth.

According to Nguyen Duc Lenh, Deputy Director of the State Bank of Vietnam’s Regional Branch 2, by the end of February 2026, the total outstanding credit in Dong Nai was estimated at 601 trillion VND, up 0.44% compared with the end of 2025. Of this figure, short-term loans  reached 365 trillion VND, accounting for 60.7% of the province’s total outstanding credit. Meanwhile, total capital mobilized by credit institutions in the province was estimated at 487 trillion VND, an increase of 0.76% against the end of last year.

In this context, the local banking sector has been urged to continue effectively implementing mechanisms and policies related to monetary and credit management as well as banking operations in the province. At the same time, the banks are expected to expand preferential credit programs to help businesses and residents access capital and banking services more easily to expand production and business activities.

Speaking at the session, Vo Minh Tuan, Director of the State Bank of Vietnam’s Regional Branch 2, stressed that the banking sector in Dong Nai should focus on solutions related to digital transformation and develop concrete action programs to expand cashless payment services. Moreover, he called for stronger administrative reform measures, improved management efficiency, and enhanced support for businesses through bank–enterprise dialogue conferences, information and communication activities, and stronger connections with the management board of industrial parks in Dong Nai province.
