The State Bank of Vietnam has been directed to monitor global and regional developments, particularly policy shifts in major economies, and effectively employ monetary policy tools to appropriately regulate exchange rates and interest rates, ensure adequate capital supply for the economy and maintain the stability of the monetary, foreign exchange and gold markets as well as the safety of the credit institution system, a domestic news agency reported.
Special attention is to be given to cutting lending interest rates and offering short-term loans for businesses hit by the US tariff policy.
The directive wants traditional growth drivers to be renewed and promoted, and preparations for the 2026-2030 medium-term public investment plan to be started, limiting the number of centrally funded projects to no more than 3,000.
