SHB puts down welcome mat for foreign firms
A financial solution package for overseas-funded firms with outstanding promotions, simple applications, and quick procedures has been rolled out by a Vietnamese bank.
Foreign business clients of Saigon-Hanoi Commercial Joint-Stock Bank (SHB) will be granted VND and foreign currency accounts and will also enjoy fee waivers on certain money transfers, online or at the counter, and on incoming international wire transfers, a 90 per cent discount for outgoing international wire transfers and 75 per cent off for Letter of Credit transactions alongside exemptions or reductions on certain international payment fees.
In addition, the bank promises to meet its clients' needs for foreign currency trading with competitive exchange rates and convenient procedures.
With this package, foreign corporate clients who use SHB’s accounts to pay salaries to employees via internet banking are exempt from transaction fees within and outside the system. In addition, the bank also offers a slew of attractive promotions for employees of foreign-invested enterprises (FIEs) opening SHB accounts. They can open credit cards with a total limit of up to VND500 million ($19,640) and secure an unsecured loan with a limit of up to 20 times their income, alongside free SMS service and ATM withdrawals.
An SHB representative said, "With our customer-centric approach, SHB offers various modern financial banking services to satisfy the needs of customers. Recognising the importance of FIEs to the economy and their expectations, SHB has designed products and solutions tailored to their demand. We have also built a pool of professional employees equipped with financial knowledge and foreign languages to accompany and support our clients."
