In Q2 alone, the bank posted VND4.7 trillion ($179 million) in pre-tax profit.

As of June 30, total assets stood at VND784 trillion ($29.8 billion), up 12.4 per cent year-to-date.

Credit was channeled to infrastructure, manufacturing, consumption, and low-risk sectors.

Its non-performing loan (NPL) ratio was kept low at 1.94 per cent, and the capital adequacy ratio (CAR) exceeded 13 per cent under Basel II.

The bank continued to support key government and central bank programmes, including loans for affordable housing, digital infrastructure, high-tech agriculture, and green finance.

Subsidiaries under HD Financial Group also recorded strong performances. HD SAISON served 15.5 million customers across 27,100 service points, with a H1 pre-tax profit of VND709 billion ($26.9 million), up 18 per cent. Vikki Digital Bank, formerly Đông Á Bank, surpassed one million app downloads in five months. HD Securities reported VND382 billion ($14.5 million) in profit and an ROE of 29 per cent, ranking among the top 10 most profitable brokerages.
