It is no coincidence that Affinity – Asia’s leading private equity fund – has been with HDBank for nearly 5 years. According to Mr. Junjie, in a year of global turmoil, HDBank not only stood firm but also grew exceptionally. Pre-tax profit in 2024 reached nearly VND 17,000 billion, 2.1 times higher than in 2021, 3.3 times higher than in 2019 – a clear demonstration of effective operation and management skills.

In the first quarter of 2025, HDBank recorded an ROE of up to 29.6%, the highest among the announced banks, making HDBank the leader in the industry and has the potential to surpass the Southeast Asian region.

Mr. Junjie emphasized: "Like a bamboo tree that needs many years to develop a strong root system before growing, HDBank has invested systematically and persistently to build a financial, technological and management foundation. Now, the bank has reached the time to accelerate."

Not only focusing on financial indicators, HDBank also invests heavily in the future. The bank is implementing comprehensive digital transformation, developing specialized financial products by industry, improving user experience, optimizing performance through modern technology platforms from interface to core system.

All these efforts are aimed at a big goal: to become HD Financial Group, a comprehensive financial ecosystem connecting HDBank, Vikki Digital Bank, HD Securities Company, HD SAISON Consumer Finance Company and its member units. A new, flexible, effective structure - ready to conquer regional standards.

Dr. Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao, Permanent Vice Chairwoman of the Board of Directors, shared inspirationally: "We do not just want to be a big bank, but a bank of choice - because of the quality, humanity and kindness in each strategy".

Ms. Thao affirmed: HDBank's current stock price does not reflect its actual potential, and the financial ecosystem that is taking shape, along with a solid financial foundation, will be the driving force to bring the bank into a new breakthrough phase - sustainable, in-depth and spreading value to each shareholder.
