UOB has injected $88m (2t Vietnamese dong) of fresh capital in its Vietnam unit, increasing its charter capital from VND3t to VND5t.

“We have grown from a representative office in 1993 to a wholly-owned subsidiary bank in 2018. Over the last three years, UOB Vietnam has grown steadily and achieved a 53%t compounded annual growth rate in assets. The increased capital base will enable us to support existing and new customers in Vietnam through our progressive solutions and the connectivity we offer across UOB Group’s regional network,” he added.
