On a global scale, green finance and inclusive finance have proven to be pivotal in sustainable development, strongly backed by governments and international institutions. This is evident through the Paris Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In tandem, inclusive finance is creating opportunities for all economic sectors, especially the private sector, to easily access capital and enhance their competitiveness.
In Vietnam, the government has committed to achieving the Net Zero target by 2050, alongside strategies to promote inclusive finance and private sector development. According to the World Bank, realizing the 2050 Net Zero commitment requires Vietnam to mobilize approximately 6.8% of GDP per year, equivalent to $368 billion. This presents both a challenge and an opportunity for Vietnam to become an attractive destination for global green capital and underscores the urgent need for a comprehensive inclusive finance ecosystem with the private sector taking the lead.
With a foundation of transparent governance adhering to international standards (IFRS, Basel III, ESMS…), Nam A Bank is committed to becoming a model for sustainable development in the private sector banking industry in Vietnam. We are dedicated to accompanying the government and the international community in the journey towards promoting sustainable development and inclusive finance in the country.
The international conference, themed “Unlocking International Green Capital Markets – Promoting Sustainable Development and Financial Inclusion in Vietnam,” taking place on September 5th, will provide a comprehensive and multidimensional perspective on green capital markets and foster international collaboration in promoting inclusive and sustainable finance.
