On October 26, 2020, the bank completed the registration of a transaction for 58.5 million shares in order to pay dividends in 2019. Thanks to this, BAC A BANK raised its charter capital from VND6.5 trillion ($282.6 million) to VND7.085 trillion ($308 million), making it one of the banks with medium-sized charter capital and sound financial health.

In terms of business results, BAC A BANK’s pre-tax profit climbed at an average of 10-20 per cent in the 2012-2020 period.

In the first nine months of 2020, defying the difficulties caused by the health crisis, BAC A BANK’s pre-tax and post-tax profits hit over VND522 billion ($22.7 million) and more than VND418 billion ($18.2 million). Thus, after the nine months, BAC A BANK fulfilled 75 per cent of its VND700 billion ($30.43 million) pre-tax profit target for the whole year.

Over the course of the first three quarters of 2020, BAC A BANK’s total assets increased by 4 per cent to almost VND112.042 trillion ($4.87 billion).

In the time to come, in addition to unceasing efforts to renew its financial and banking product portfolios, BAC A BANK will maintain investment consultancy services and loans for enterprises engaging in projects utilising high technologies, or those related to healthcare, education, and social security. BAC A BANK will also retain sustainable and stable growth in revenue and profit, bringing big values to its shareholders.
