The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) is researching a decree on a controlled trial mechanism for financial technology (fintech) activities in the banking sector, for submission to the government for promulgation this year. The central bank will also focus on helping credit institutions and foreign bank branches in Vietnam receive foreign aid and concessional loans to finance projects on the green classification list.
If Vietnam’s circular economy is to develop, it is necessary to introduce a mechanism to help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) access finance; offer incentives to support and create the conditions for businesses to access green capital; and link the transformation to the circular economy with reductions in carbon emissions. This would create motivation for organizations and enterprises to develop the circular economy.
