Nearly VNĐ350 trillion (US$13.38 billion) was disbursed through the HCM City’s annual bank–business linkage programme in the first half of this year, a 6.35 per cent increase, according to the State Bank of Vietnam.
The disbursed public investment declined in July due to the surge in COVID-19 cases, but it still grew 5.6 percent in the first seven months of 2021 as compared to the same period last year.
