The Bulletin Edition # 05

The newsletter from CCIPV - 06 Sep 2022

The Bulletin Edition is a weekly newsletter from the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Portugal - Vietnam that provides a well-appointed briefing on the latest news, offering a unique and informed view and a swathe of recommendations from our experts about Vietnam and Portugal. We provide industry insights and considered reporting from across both countries. Stay informed and inspired with our bulletin.

Welcome to the first newsletter of September 2022.

Last week, the port of Sines, on Portugal’s southern Atlantic coast, is studying the possibility of transforming a multi-use “jetty” into a terminal for handling renewable gases, with an expected investment of about €20 million.

In Vietnam, one important piece of information. It is in regard to cashless payment. The Standing Economic Committee of the National Assembly released strict regulations on those matters. You can read it here.

EVFTA underpins the continued growth of Vietnam's technology market due to the changes in consumer behaviour and market trends over the past years.

Last but not least, we invite you to be part of the Portuguese Pavilion in GEFE – Green Economy Forum and Exhibition in Ho Chi Minh City. Be involved here.

Warm regards,


Sérgio Pereira da Silva

Vietnam's State Bank Loans Made To Non-Banking Credit Institutions


Non-banking credit institutions ("NBCIs") are able to pledge their valuable papers to obtain loans secured by the State Bank of Vietnam ("SBVN Secured Loans") without the Prime Minister's approval. This change took place in October 2011 and the arrangement has remained more or less unchanged since then. It will be useful to review this simple but very important framework.
