BIDV – 65 years
Building a sustainable partnership of mutual benefits
S
tandard Chartered Bank would like to extend our warmest congratulations to BIDV on the Bank’s 65th anniversary of establishment. BIDV has made impressive achievements over the years, which have strengthened the Bank’s position as one of the top financial institutions in Vietnam, a bank that goes along with the developments of Vietnam’s banking industry and its economy. BIDV’s successful IPO in 2011 and listing on Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange (HoSE) in 2014 have opened the glory path of continuous successes in the Bank’s equitization process. The establishment of BIDV MetLife joint venture in 2014 has created a trusted insurance company. The landmark M&A deal in the banking history between BIDV and KEB Hana Bank in 2019 was also an essential milestone of BIDV, equipping the Bank with important resources to facilitate its growth path and global integration through the improvement of management ability, risk control and competitiveness and better economic efficiency via larger scale.
Leveraging our best-in-class international capabilities and expertise, we are committed to being a trusted partner of BIDV and providing you with meaningful support as you seek to realize your ambitions in Vietnam and overseas.

We strongly believe that BIDV will continue to achieve great success in the time to come and be able to fulfil your ambitions. Standard Chartered is a leading international banking group, with a presence in 59 of the world’s most dynamic markets and serving clients in a further 83.
