Immediately after grasping the situation, the Board of Directors of Agribank directed the entire system in the Central region to proactively respond, ensure the safety of people, property, machinery, documents, and at the same time prepare enough food, food, and necessities to serve in the conditions of prolonged rain and flood.

The branches will coordinate with the Central Representative Office to organize working groups to directly visit deeply flooded and heavily affected communes and wards, focusing mainly on supporting the fields of health, education, food relief, and appropriate flood prevention equipment, helping localities and people in flood-affected areas to quickly stabilize their lives.

In addition to relief activities, the Board of Directors and the Agribank Trade Union also requested branches in the damaged areas to urgently compile statistics on the level of impact of customers, production households and families of officials and workers so that the bank can have appropriate credit support policies, interest rate reductions, and debt extensions, helping people and businesses quickly restore production after natural disasters.

The support was deployed in the last days of October, clearly demonstrating Agribank's social responsibility and spirit of sharing with the community, contributing to maintaining the trust of customers and the community in Agribank.
