The funding will help the bank expand financing for small and medium-sized enterprises, businesses owned or led by women, and agricultural businesses, meeting their needs for working capital, increased production capacity and business expansion. The range of maturities will also bolster the bank’s medium- and long-term funding and support its development strategy for 2026–2030.
The transaction was jointly coordinated and arranged by the International Finance Corporation (IFC) and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC), with participants including development finance institutions, export-import banks and commercial banks. IFC will also help VPBank strengthen its agricultural financing capacity and expand funding for small and medium-sized enterprises in the sector.
The loan continues the bank’s international fundraising efforts in recent years. In June 2026, the bank signed a $1.44 billion sustainability-linked syndicated loan with 15 international financial institutions. In 2025, the bank raised a total of $2.36 billion internationally, including a $1.56 billion syndicated loan and $300 million in international sustainability bonds.
