The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) published an update on the 2025–2030 congress of the Party cell of the Standing Agency of the Vietnam Banks Association (VNBA), attended and chaired in an oversight capacity by SBV Deputy Governor Pham Tien Dung. The congress reviewed performance in 2020–2025 and introduced the Party cell’s executive committee for the new term. The review highlighted the VNBA standing office’s work on policy consultation, acting as a bridge between member credit institutions and state authorities, and supporting implementation of SBV direction, alongside communications and training for members. Reported organisational metrics included commendations from the Prime Minister, the SBV Governor and the Ministry of Justice; 100% of staff rated at least “good” with 20% “excellent”; admission of five new Party members against a target of three; and annual thematic supervision covering around 30% of Party members. On sector initiatives, the VNBA established a Consumer Finance Club and a Debt Resolution Club, and is preparing to form a Risk Committee under the Association Council. For 2025–2030, the Deputy Governor asked the new leadership to promptly finalise internal working regulations, a term programme and task allocations, and to implement Party directives including Conclusion 21-KL/TW. He also called for stronger engagement in commenting on mechanisms and policies, citing emerging areas affecting the banking sector such as financial centres and virtual asset trading platforms, alongside continued focus on human resource development; the Party cell leadership indicated it would incorporate the guidance into its term action programme.
