SBV establishes Special Working Teams to support SMEs

The Governor of the State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) is directing relevant departments to establish Special Working Team of SBV in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. These two working teams are mainly responsible for coordinating with professional associations in the two cities to timely resolve difficulties and problems of SMEs in getting access to loans of credit institutions.

The coming into being of these two working teams resulted from the meetings of SBV and the Ministry of Finance with the Hanoi People’s Committee (December 5) and the Ho Chi Minh People’s Committee (November 7).

The two working teams are required to send their weekly reports on the outcomes of their work. These outcomes should also be publicized in the mass media.
