HA NOI (Biz Hub)— Deputy head of the State Bank of Viet Nam's Credit Department Tran Xuan Chau said the bank wants solutions to accelerate disbursement of the VND30-trillion housing package for low-income people.

Accordingly, SBV will propose extension of loan periods in the package from the current 10 to 15 years. The maximum period of loans provided to property businesses in the package is five years.
