Proactive Liquidity for Peak Season – Financial Advantage for Large-Scale Ticket Agencies
The peak tourism season is in full swing across the country, bringing a surge in travel, accommodation, and leisure activities. According to the latest figures from the Statistics Bureau, Vietnam welcomed a record-breaking 12 million international arrivals in the first seven months, a nearly 23% increase from the previous year. Domestic travel also saw impressive growth of 18.1%, especially in coastal cities and integrated resorts.
To meet this increased demand, large-scale travel agencies, and tourism service distributors are accelerating their expansion, enhancing service quality, and capturing market share. However, managing cash flow becomes a significant challenge as the need for advance payments and ticket settlements rises while the recovery period elongates.
Understanding the challenges faced by growing businesses, the National Commercial Joint Stock Bank (NCB) has launched a specialized funding program for airlines, travel, entertainment, and resort agencies through overdraft and working capital financing solutions. NCB’s tailored approach empowers agencies to access funds for ticket payments and operational expenses during peak seasons, enabling them to seize large-volume orders, maintain continuous operations, and execute effective sales campaigns.

In parallel, NCB offers a range of specialized financial solutions, including flexible advance ticket loan repayment terms that align with seasonal revenue fluctuations, and payment guarantee services to expedite debt collection and improve capital turnover. Complementary foreign exchange and insurance services further mitigate peak-season risks, control costs, and enhance financial management efficiency.
Fortifying Financial Strength for Securities Companies Riding Market Waves
Securities companies are also undergoing a transformative phase, particularly in their quest to invest in digital transformation and expand their ecosystem of products and services. However, the primary obstacle for businesses in this sector is the lack of suitable collateral to access traditional credit facilities.
Recognizing this need, NCB has tailored a credit program offering up to 90% financing with interest rates as low as 2.9% annually for government bond investments by securities companies. This solution is meticulously crafted for securities companies with annual financial revenues of VND 100 billion or higher, empowering them with financial agility, optimized investment efficiency, and strengthened market competitiveness.
