The rate applies to three-month loans disbursed during the programme period.
The bank said the lending package is one of its practical measures to facilitate individuals and businesses’ access to preferential capital for their living and business needs.
Previously, in line with the Government and the State Bank of Vietnam’s efforts to boost economic recovery, Sacombank increased the funding it had earmarked for lending to businesses to VNĐ40 trillion at interest rates starting from 3 per cent a year and rolled out a preferential package worth VNĐ10 trillion for retail customers for fulfilling their living needs, with interest rates starting at 6.5 per cent.
