Attending the forum were representatives of the State Bank of Vietnam; representatives of local departments and agencies in the Central region; domestic and foreign experts, credit institutions, and enterprises operating in industrial parks (IPs).
The forum is an opportunity for managers, experts, businesses and banks to discuss, share international experiences and propose feasible solutions to remove bottlenecks in developing green industrial parks associated with green credit.
At the forum, the leader of the State Bank of Vietnam, Region 9 branch (including the localities of Quang Tri, Hue City, Da Nang City, Quang Nam, Quang Ngai) said that by the end of March 2025, there were 30 credit institution branches in Region 9 with green credit outstanding debt with a total outstanding debt of about VND 10,482 billion, accounting for nearly 2% of the total outstanding debt in the region.

The Management Board of Economic Zones and Industrial Parks of Quang Nam province also proposed many solutions to promote green development such as: Establishing a green credit fund, issuing green industrial park criteria, integrating environmental criteria into credit approval, building a risk sharing mechanism, building a set of green credit assessment criteria, simplifying administrative procedures, establishing a technical support center, promoting green transformation training...
