Moody’s raised credit rating for Vietcombank

Moody, one of the world’s leading credit ratings agencies, has upgraded the credit rating outlook of the Joint Stock Commercial Bank for Foreign Trade of Viet Nam (Vietcombank) local currency deposits and issuer ratings to “positive”, from its previous level of "stable".

 

The rating’s agency raised the Government of Viet Nam’s outlook to positive from stable at the end of last month.

Vietcombank has been one of the banks conducting effective business operations in Viet Nam. It has been continuously voted the "Best Bank in Viet Nam" by prestigious institutions around the world, while taking the lead in the domestic market on important rankings, such as Top 500 banking brand, Top 500 strongest Asian banks, Top 300 dynamic companies in Asia and Top 100 of the most interesting companies in the Asean region.

It was noted that the bank has paid attention to international standards in order to improve operational efficiencies.
