The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) held a meeting in Da Nang with directors of its regional branches, where Deputy Governor Pham Tien Dung reviewed how the regional SBV units have operated as the SBV’s “extended arms” in implementing monetary and banking policies locally and in identifying obstacles to inform policy and mechanism development. The discussion was framed against a transition to a regional SBV model within the SBV’s organisational structure. The meeting was set up for regional units to exchange management and operational experience and to raise issues for response by SBV functional departments. Topics covered the management and operation of the regional SBV model, inspection and supervision of credit institutions, delivery of public services and banking-sector digital transformation, foreign exchange and gold management, and advisory work for local government committees in the monetary and banking field.
