12
Recently we were glad to welcome to London Deputy General Director Ms. Thiang Thi Hien to receive the award.
13
Well welcome to London and thank you so much for being with us today and congratulations on the award as well.
14
It's my pleasure to be here to get the award.
15
Thank you for that.
16
And in fact, congratulations also on 24 years of operation with AB Bank.
17
How would you say, looking back over that time, the market, the banking market has evolved in Vietnam?
18
Previous years, our economy experienced the recovery after the toughest periods
19
of five since 2010 to 2015 of the downturn in the economy.
20
Last year, we see the increase in GDP at 6 .2 %
21
and the inflation is just at the rate of 2 .8%.
22
For the Vietnamese banking industry, we also see the recovery after such periods.
23
Under the focus of the government on reforming the banking industry,
24
we decreased the number of the commercial banks.
25
Now we have the soleil 31 commercial banks in Vietnam.
26
The government focuses on improving the efficiency and competitiveness of the banking sector.
27
We also can maintain the non -performing loan ratio lower than 3 % of the total outstanding loan to the market.
28
That's why the government believes that we can improve faster
29
and we can restructuring and finish the reforming the period sooner than expected.
30
According to the reports of the World Bank,
31
I think Vietnamese economy has a positive medium term outlook.
32
And we have a recovery at the asset rate because we have a huge local demand.
33
And we also have the economy that manufacturing focuses on the exports.
34
So it's a very competitive market at the moment.
35
What would you say the current trends in the banking sector actually are at the moment in Vietnam?
36
We see some trends in Vietnamese banking sectors that is not outside the trend of the global banking sectors.
37
Some similar like
38
because of the challenge from the
39
fintech wave of the fintech products that non -bank sectors provide to the customers.
40
And that's a lot, many banks in Vietnam now have to diversify the product
41
and services to adapt to the new situation of the market and the new requirements of the market.
42
Besides that, because our banks in Vietnam, the income, the major income of the banks.
43
income from the interest income.
44
It's accounted around 80 % of the total income of the bank.
45
Now we see the importance of the non -interest income.
46
That's why we have to focus on the products,
47
especially for the technology intense that we provide to the customers.
48
Well those are some of the current trends.
49
Anything else you want to add to that?
50
I think one more important point I want to add on the current trend,
51
because you see that the Vietnamese economy is a cash economy. And currently, the government
52
and also state bank of Vietnam want to increase the capacity
53
of the banks on providing the non -cash transactions to the market
54
and that's why all the banks have to try the best
55
effort on not only the training the customers on the way they behave with the money
56
and the way they do the transaction in the payment so
57
that to align with the direction of the government is to increase the non -cash transactions of the customers.
58
So you've actually enjoyed a fantastic 168 % growth over the years gone by.
59
What do you contribute and attribute indeed to that massive success?
60
Looking back to what we have achieved last year, under the closely supervised and the support from the BOD,
61
We see some primary contribution to such major achievement.
62
The first is about the network.
63
We increased significantly the number of the traditional network,
64
around 159 point of transactions over 33 provinces and cities
65
that provide the service to the key customer of that key carrier area.
66
The later because we have to diversify the product to provide to the customers
67
because we're not only relying on the traditional network
68
but we also provide the service non -traditional network like the service
69
and products on the online banking or mobile banking to the customers.
70
So next one is about we are trying
71
and maintaining the low non -performing loan is challenging in Vietnam because you know that non -performing loan
72
service is not easy at all.
73
But we have our planning for the recovery of the
74
non -performing loan has been made a good mark last year
75
and that's why our non -performing loan is a rate lower than the requirements of the state mind of Vietnam, 3%.
76
The next one is the next point
77
that helps us to improve the efficiency of the operation is
78
that we provide a wider range of products to the customers by separating the SME division
79
from the corporate banking in order to specify the requirements of the segment
80
and also to provide the specialized products to that customer.
81
The last reason is because we maintain the stable funding sources
82
and lower the cost of the funding and we maintain the good liquidity
83
and the squad is also the reason that support us to achieve the result of the last year.
84
So you made some quite important changes there to make things more effective.
85
And one of the recent developments I know is
86
that AB Bank actually has become the first Vietnamese member of the Financial Innovations of UNEP, to get it correct there.
87
Tell us more about the membership and the significance of that.
88
Since 2013, when IFC became our strategic partners and strategic shareholders,
89
we also have the kind of commitment together to provide delivery loan to the customer
90
and support the specific customer with the projects
91
that focus on sustainable development and the green economy, green technology.
92
To continue that commitment, early this year,
93
we became the first bank in Vietnam, became the member of UNEPFI.
94
It is the program
95
that has been established in 1972 in Stockholm by the UN to focus on the sustainable development and preventing the climate change.
96
Become a member of this program,
97
we want to be a pioneer in Vietnam to support the customer by green financing
98
and support their project to focus on the sustainable development.
99
The next one, when we become the member of this program,
100
we are able to join with a network of over 200 members from over 40 countries,
101
which is we can exchange the experience and
102
we can learn from them so that we can improve our efficiency
103
and to know how to support the customer on the sustainable development
104
and how to manage the environment risk and also the social risk.
105
Besides that,
106
we also want to improve the efficiency of our green portfolio
107
because you know that the project for the green technology or clean technologies
108
normally need money a lot.
109
But we believe that for the sustainable development, this is a good way to support the customer,
110
not only for the customer, not only for ourselves, but also for the society.
111
Yes, absolutely.
112
With a green environment, absolutely.
113
Now, I know, I mean, that's just one thing you mentioned there.
114
And I know AB Bank is very keen to come up with new innovations and improve services to your customers.
115
Can you tell us about some of your latest releases and projects?
116
You know that for the improved customer experience, it's not only how many new products we provide to the customer,
117
but also how the customer feel about your product and services.
118
And that's why besides the new products we provide to the customers,
119
depending on specific sectors like large corporate customers or SME customers or especially for the retail customers.
120
Now, all
121
that product we provide to the customer need to bring more
122
efficiency to the customer help the customer have the better experience with the bank.
123
Like, in shorter time serving, we focus on the operation excellence.
124
We have to focus on improving our SLA to provide the service.
125
Besides that, for now the customer experience the new technology products and we are now also focusing on that.
126
Last year, AB Bank fan page on Facebook is also one of the top 8 fan pages in Vietnam
127
and they interact with the customer on the Omnichannel.
128
I think it's also a good way to improve the customer experience with the bank keeping up with the times
129
and being very modern.
130
Moving on, we've got another half year to go yet before the end of 2017, at least at the time of this recording.
131
What are your plans for the future?
132
Any exciting new innovations we can hear about?
133
We have a big plan for 2017.
134
Like besides all other banks, we have a business plan.
135
Yes, we have to complete the business plan,
136
especially for the financial target at increasing the net profit by 22%.
137
Besides that, we have the other big targets like we are keeping the Moody's rating.
138
The next one is listing our shares on the stock exchange.
139
We also expect to prepare our financial reports according to the IFRS standard.
140
The next target of this year is we have so many projects that need to be implemented to apply our PZ2 requirements.
141
And the last big point
142
that we expected to complete this year is to improve our financial indicators like ROE or ROA.
143
It sounds like you're going to be very, very busy.
144
Thank you very much for coming and telling us more about AB Bank.
145
Once again, congratulations on the award and it's been really nice talking to you.
146
Thank you so much.
147
Thank you so much.
148
Thank you.
FOR YOU

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
