Explaining some issues of concern to delegates at the discussion session, Governor of the State Bank of Vietnam Nguyen Thi Hong said that in 2022, there are two reasons for higher interest rates.
That is, international interest rates simultaneously increased rapidly and strongly. Domestically, average inflation is still higher than in 2021. Therefore, the management cannot be subjective with inflation.
Regarding the implementation of the 2% interest rate support package, Ms. Nguyen Thi Hong said that the results were still low due to the fear of businesses and credit institutions, it was difficult to assess how resilient it was.
Faced with that situation, the Government submitted to the National Assembly to transfer this source (about 24 trillion VND) to reduce value added tax (VAT).
With a credit package of VND 120 trillion, Governor Nguyen Thi Hong emphasized, this is a package to be implemented until 2030. Capital is mobilized by 4 state-owned commercial banks, the interest rate is reduced from 1,5-2% loans to investors and home buyers of social housing projects, worker housing, renovation and reconstruction projects of old apartment buildings.
The State Bank only guides on interest rates applied during the preferential period for uniform implementation. The Ministry of Construction has guidelines and authorization for localities to publish the project list.
In addition, Governor Nguyen Thi Hong emphasized that weak bank restructuring is a backlog and difficult to handle, "under normal conditions it is difficult and in difficult conditions, it is even more difficult". The Government and the Prime Minister have strongly directed and requested many solutions.
