Certifications acknowledge financial improvements
Two financial institutions in Vietnam have earned certification from the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, demonstrating their commitment to developing high-quality, sustainable talent in accounting, finance, and management.
The association (ACCA) held certification ceremonies on January 16 and 17 for PVcomBank and PVI Holdings as they were named ACCA Approved Employers, underscoring a pivotal achievement in their ongoing efforts to elevate training and human resource development.

The certificates not only mark a commitment to fostering an international-standard work environment but also highlight their dedication to sustainable growth and excellence in the financial sector.
These ceremonies were held at the headquarters of both organisations in Hanoi, with the attendance of representatives from the ACCA Vietnam, the leadership of PVcomBank and PVI Holdings, and ACCA members working at these entities and their subsidiaries.
Nguyen Viet Ha, deputy general director of PVcomBank, emphasised that becoming an ACCA Approved Employer was a testament to the bank’s continuous efforts in improving the work environment, enhancing human resource quality, and affirming its commitment to sustainable development.
“The certification not only acknowledges PVcomBank’s ideal work environment but also solidifies our strong commitment to developing high-quality personnel. We will continue to leverage existing values and provide maximum support for our staff to develop their professional skills,” he said.
To Quoc Hung, country manager of ACCA Vietnam, highlighted that few organisations in Vietnam have met the international standards for financial training and human resource development set by the association in its 23 years of operation in the country.
“The partnership between the ACCA and PVcomBank will lead to a successful future. Through this collaboration, we are committed to accompanying PVcomBank in enhancing leadership, financial management, and strategic capabilities according to international standards through upcoming training activities,” Hung said.
The event also featured the signing of a cooperation agreement between the ACCA and PVcomBank, focusing on specialised training activities, recruitment, and human resource development.
According to the agreement, the pair will implement initiatives that strengthen leadership and financial management skills and develop strategic human resources. The ACCA will design short-term courses to enhance the skills and professional knowledge of PVcomBank employees. A significant highlight of the agreement is the ACCA Job Fast Track programme, which offers special recruitment opportunities for ACCA members and students based on their certificate completion levels.
Ngo Vi Phong, head of the legal and compliance division at PVcomBank, said that the partnership was not just a strategic step but a valuable opportunity for everyone working at the bank.
“PVcomBank will be a place where ACCA members, whether beginners or experienced professionals, can apply their knowledge and develop further,” Phong said. “Through this collaboration, we will build a team of professionals who are not only skilled but also innovative, ethical, and responsible towards customers, colleagues, and society.”
PVI Holdings also expressed pride in receiving the certification. During the ceremony, Hung of the ACCA commended PVI for its efforts in developing superior personnel strategies, continuously enhancing staff competencies, and meeting the increasing demands of the global economy.
“With nearly 8,000 ACCA Approved Employers worldwide, achieving this certification not only reinforces the company’s reputation but also expands its influence in domestic and international markets. The certification confirms PVI Holdings’ strategic commitment to developing, and enhancing the capabilities of its workforce, fostering sustainable organisational growth,” Hung said.
Nguyen Tuan Tu, vice chairman and CEO of PVI, hoped that joining the ACCA Approved Employers network would lead to continued collaboration in developing high-quality accounting, finance, and management personnel.
“We also look forward to leveraging global trends and increasing member value through the ACCA’s professional activities, ensuring that PVI staff who are ACCA students and members receive ample support in completing training requirements,” Tu said.
