More than three decades ago, UOB was the first Singapore bank to establish a presence in Vietnam, which the bank calls one of its "key regional markets".
Nguyen Hoa Binh, Vietnam’s Standing Deputy Prime Minister visited UOB on Jan 11 as part of his official visit to Singapore, where he met officials and industry leaders to discuss the development of the Vietnam International Financial Centre (IFC) that was announced last month.
At this visit to UOB, hosted by deputy chairman and CEO Wee Ee Cheong, the parties involved covered Vietnam’s vision for the IFC, policy priorities and opportunities for international financial institutions to participate in and support the development of Vietnam’s financial ecosystem.
