State Bank of Vietnam sets 2025–2027 priorities for its Finance and Accounting Department including updated accounting rules for banks

The State Bank of Vietnam’s Finance and Accounting Department held its first Party cell congress for the 2025–2027 term, with Standing Deputy Governor Dao Minh Tu providing direction on governance and work priorities. The programme for the new term focuses on strengthening internal working arrangements and advancing accounting, finance and investment-management policy work across the SBV system, including developing accounting regimes for credit institutions and foreign bank branches within its remit. In reviewing the 2020–2025 term, the department reported progress on internal Party conclusions on political and ideological education and training, including sending three members to advanced political theory training and 15 to intermediate-level programmes. It also described organisational streamlining that reduced one specialist division and changes to improve the content and quality of Party meetings aligned with professional duties. For 2025–2027, the Standing Deputy Governor called for the adoption of working regulations, a term work programme and clear task allocation, alongside continued implementation of higher-level Party directives. Priority professional tasks include completing mechanisms and policies on accounting, finance and management of capital construction investment in the SBV system, and reviewing and issuing accounting rules and related legal instruments for supervised entities in line with the amended Accounting Law.
