In 2023, it managed to ensure a low bad debts ratio of 1.5% and achieve a capital adequacy ratio (CAR) of 12.6%, among the highest in the industry.

The annual general meeting also agreed to increase the dividend payment rate in 2023 to 30% from 25% with a maximum of 10% in cash, based on the business results it achieved.

In 2023, profit before tax topped VND13 trillion (US$613 million), up 26.8 % from 2022. HDBank achieved an ROA of 2% and an ROE of 24.2%, placing it among the top banks in the industry.

In the first quarter of 2024, HDBank achieved significant pre-tax profits, which topped VND4 trillion (US$157.8 million), a 43.6% jump year-on-year. Its ROE was 26.2%, credit growth was 6.2% and bad debts were controlled at 1.68% in the first quarter. Its CAR based on Basel II standards exceeded 13.7% in the period.

HDBank has consistently delivered for its shareholders, and this year is no exception as it plans to pay a dividend of 30%, with a maximum of 15% in cash and the rest in stocks.
