The update also highlighted progress in digital transformation and cashless payments, alongside ongoing work on foreign exchange management, gold trading, cash circulation and operational security. At the meeting, provincial authorities asked bank branches to keep improving credit quality, control bad debts and continue directing funding to production, business, priority sectors and the province’s growth drivers. They also called for stronger action against illegal lending, money laundering and cybercrime, while maintaining banking security and support for social welfare programs.
