HDBank’s Impressive Streak of Excellence: Unveiling the Secrets Behind Their Success
Specifically, HDBank has maintained its streak of excellence, winning the award for Outstanding Annual Report in the Finance sector for the sixth consecutive year. This achievement stems from the bank’s relentless efforts to enhance the quality of its financial reporting, striving towards international standards such as the ASEAN CG Scorecard.
In the realm of corporate governance, HDBank was recognized within the Top 10 Large Cap companies, concurrently receiving the Best Annual General Meeting Organization award for the second year in a row. HDBank has been a pioneer in conducting flexible Annual General Meetings (both online and in-person), optimizing convenience and ensuring shareholders’ rights. This achievement holds even more significance as the criteria for corporate governance were elevated in 2024, aligning with the latest OECD standards, with a 40% weightage given to international norms.
These accolades at the Listed Companies Awards 2024 reflect HDBank’s exceptional and sustainable performance. As of the third quarter of 2024, the bank’s pre-tax profit reached VND 12,655 billion, a remarkable 46.6% increase compared to the previous year.

Parallel to its business operations, HDBank has also been a frontrunner in community and environmental initiatives. In the first nine months of 2024, the bank undertook numerous meaningful social responsibility activities, including donating health insurance cards to the underprivileged, constructing charitable houses, supporting underprivileged students, responding to the Prime Minister’s call to eradicate temporary and dilapidated housing nationwide, and offering a VND 12,000 billion credit package to customers affected by Typhoon Yagi. Additionally, the bank actively contributed to aiding people affected by floods in the northern provinces.

According to the organizers, HDBank demonstrated exceptional performance in risk management, bad debt assessment and control, and efficient capital utilization within the financial sector.
