NCB honored by Global Banking & Finance Review

“Fastest Growing Corporate Bank Vietnam 2026”

Breakthrough capabilities, a strategic partner to Vietnam’s leading enterprises

According to Global Banking & Finance Review, NCB has made a strong impression in the corporate banking segment thanks to robust growth in its customer base, product and service portfolio, and business performance. Its development strategy focusing on ecosystem customers, industry-leading enterprises and businesses operating within supply chains, coupled with flexible operational capabilities and a strong emphasis on applying technology to enhance customer experience, has delivered impressive results, contributing to NCB’s growing position and influence in the market.

Being honored in its very first year of participation not only reflects the growth rate of NCB’s corporate banking segment but also recognizes the significant improvements in the Bank’s competitiveness following five years of comprehensive transformation.

NCB is increasingly establishing its reputation within the business community

In recent years, NCB has continuously strengthened its financial capacity, invested in technology, and developed an ecosystem of solutions specifically designed for businesses. Following the completion of four capital increases over five consecutive years, the Bank has significantly enhanced its capabilities to meet the needs of major corporations, large-scale enterprises, and key national projects.

In parallel, NCB has developed a comprehensive ecosystem of financial solutions, ranging from credit, trade finance, supply chain finance, and guarantees to cash flow management and international payment solutions, all delivered through a modern, secure, and convenient digital banking platform. A highlight is CORP360, a comprehensive digital financial platform for businesses developed under an integrated ecosystem model, enabling enterprises to connect with the Bank and their upstream and downstream partners on a single unified platform. This delivers a convenient and fast “single-touchpoint” experience, optimizes operations, and enhances financial management efficiency for businesses.

These platforms have enabled NCB to evolve from a bank providing financial services into an effective and trusted partner accompanying businesses on their journey of growth and accelerated digital transformation.

Accompanying the creation of new growth drivers for the economy

Building on its enhanced capabilities, NCB is increasingly expanding its presence in sectors that play a leading role in driving economic growth. The Bank prioritizes accompanying industry-leading enterprises, businesses within supply chains, contractors implementing key national projects, and enterprises operating in construction, infrastructure, tourism, and aviation.

In 2026 alone, NCB has participated in financing and arranging capital for key national infrastructure projects such as the Convention and Exhibition Center, Theater, Park, and infrastructure serving APEC; the Ben Nha Rong - Khanh Hoi Cultural Park and public green spaces along the Saigon River; the City Central Square and Administrative Center of Ho Chi Minh City, among others.

In addition, NCB contributes to accelerating digital transformation across various sectors of the economy through modern, digitalized financial solutions, thereby helping enhance businesses’ competitiveness, stimulate consumption, develop tourism, and improve connectivity across the economy.

The “Fastest Growing Corporate Bank Vietnam 2026” award not only recognizes and affirms NCB’s enhanced capabilities in corporate banking, but also demonstrates the strong and comprehensive momentum of a bank accelerating into a new stage of development in the nation’s era of advancement.
