Under the MoU, Proparco and Nam A Bank will focus on boosting the development and mobilisation of green financial resources. A central pillar of this partnership is the Green Finance Community, a pioneering initiative proposed by Nam A Bank at the Vietnam International Financial Centre (VIFC - HCMC).

The collaboration with a major institution like Proparco is expected to create a synergistic effect, sharing international resources and transforming VIFC-HCMC into an attractive destination for green capital flows and sustainable development in Vietnam.

The signing took place as Proparco is evaluating a $30 million loan with a five-year term to support Nam A Bank’s green credit portfolio. This funding aligns with Nam A Bank’s long-term strategy to encourage environmentally friendly business activities.

“This MoU is not only a recognition of an international development finance institution’s trust in Nam A Bank, but also a significant step in our journey to elevate our operational standards,” stated a representative from Nam A Bank. “We believe Proparco’s partnership will enable us to expand green financial resources and spread sustainable development values to the Vietnamese business community and the economy.”

A subsidiary of the French Development Agency, Proparco focuses on private sector development. As of late 2025, Proparco held total assets of approximately $10.7 billion, with a loan and investment portfolio of around $9.9 billion.
