Agribank - A pivotal position in the development of "agriculture, rural areas"

Worthy of being a pillar for agricultural and rural development

Carrying a dual mission - both performing the political mission of a 100% State-owned commercial bank and undertaking business tasks, after 37 years of construction and development, the mission for agriculture, farmers and rural areas of Vietnam has always been the "red thread" throughout the development journey of Agribank.

Constantly innovating and creating in capital supply, developing effective services, serving production and business development, Agribank is at the forefront of many breakthrough models, leaving a strong mark in each stage of development such as:

Piloting loans to farming households, establishing joint venture lending groups, mobile banks, proposing initiatives to establish a Bank for the Poor (the predecessor of today's Social Policy Bank), investing in the development of clean agriculture, linkage chains, high-tech agriculture... Agribank has deployed over 64,000 lending groups, a model of mobile transaction points using specialized cars with nearly 4,000 transaction sessions serving tens of thousands of customers, especially in rural, mountainous, remote and isolated areas.

In addition, Agribank is a pioneer in bringing "green finance" into agricultural development, supporting circular production models, reducing emissions, aiming for sustainable development and realizing Vietnam's commitment to "net zero emissions" by 2050.

Pioneering in implementing macroeconomic policies and social security

Agribank is the key bank implementing the policies of the Party and the State, contributing significantly to stabilizing the macro economy, controlling inflation, promoting growth and ensuring social security, developing agriculture - the "pillar" of the economy in a modern and sustainable direction.

Agribank has been effectively implementing 7 policy credit policies, 3 national target programs on new rural construction, sustainable poverty reduction and socio-economic development in ethnic minority and mountainous areas. With a market share of agricultural and rural credit accounting for 1/3 of the entire industry, Agribank has been playing a vital role in providing capital for agricultural production, thereby not only ensuring food security but also making an important contribution to macroeconomic stability, ensuring social security and sustainable development.

Not only playing an important role in leading the market, Agribank is also one of the enterprises with the largest budget contribution to the country with more than 43,000 billion VND paid to the budget in the period of 2021-2024 (in 2024 alone, it reached more than 15,000 billion VND), for many consecutive years in the TOP 10 enterprises paying the largest taxes in Vietnam, affirming its pivotal role in the Vietnamese financial and banking system.

In addition to business activities, Agribank always promotes the spirit of "Banking for the community". Every year, the bank spends 500 - 600 billion VND on social security activities. In 2024 alone, this figure will reach nearly 700 billion VND with a series of housing projects, schools, medical stations, disaster relief, environmental protection... being widely deployed across the country, contributing to improving living conditions for tens of thousands of people./.
