Credit balance reached VND 108,408 billion, up 25.89% and 12.81% respectively. With this credit balance growth, the banking industry has completed the 2024 plan 4 months ahead of schedule (the credit balance growth rate set by the Provincial People's Committee is 12%), higher than the credit balance growth rate of the entire industry (the entire industry increased by 6.88%). To achieve the above results, in the past 8 months, the banking sector in the province has focused on promoting credit provision towards production and business sectors, prioritizing growth drivers according to the Government's policy; continuing to strictly control outstanding credit for sectors with high potential risks; creating favorable conditions for people and businesses to access capital sources, ensuring compliance with legal regulations, contributing to limiting "black credit"... Thanks to that, the banking sector has well met the capital borrowing needs of businesses and people to develop production and business.
