Chairman Kim Byoungho emphasized the bank’s adaptability and strategic consistency. Vice Chairwoman Nguyen Thi Phuong Thao stated that a large bank is measured not only by asset size but by its ability to shoulder responsibility. The bank outlined its strategy to form a multi-financial ecosystem comprising HDBank, Vikki Bank (digital bank), HD SAISON (consumer finance), and HDB Securities (HDS).

HDB shares closed at VND 26 on April 15, 2026, up 1.15% with volume of 10.7 million shares.

Strategic Significance
HDBank’s 2026 plan signals a new growth cycle (2026-2030) aimed at becoming a large-scale, high-efficiency financial institution. The integrated ecosystem strategy leverages synergies between commercial banking, digital banking, consumer finance, and securities, potentially enhancing cross-selling and customer retention. The high dividend (30%) and strong capital base (CAR 16.7%) provide a buffer for expansion, while international cooperation and foreign investor interest (over 166 foreign institutions) may support valuation.
