Indovina Bank Ltd. (IVB) has been honored with two prestigious accolades at the Asian Banking & Finance (ABF) Awards 2026: SME Community Support of the Year and Digital Business Banking Initiative of the Year. The awards, presented by one of Asia's most respected financial industry recognition programs, celebrate financial institutions that demonstrate excellence in innovation, service quality and customer value.

The two awards recognize IVB's ongoing commitment to supporting the business community, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), while accelerating digital transformation to deliver modern, secure and efficient financial solutions for corporate customers.

The recognition marks another significant milestone in IVB's corporate banking journey and underscores the Bank's customer-centric strategy, combining technology-driven innovation with practical financial solutions to meet the evolving needs of businesses.

Supporting the growth of Vietnam's SME Community

Amid an increasingly dynamic economic landscape, IVB has remained committed to providing long-term financial solutions that strengthen business resilience and promote sustainable growth, rather than focusing solely on short-term support measures.

Throughout 2024 and 2025, IVB introduced a wide range of initiatives for corporate customers, including flexible debt restructuring for businesses affected by natural disasters, preferential lending rates and service fee incentives, customer appreciation programs, and referral campaigns for new corporate customers, with a total promotional budget of up to VND 1 billion.

These initiatives have contributed to the sustainable growth of IVB's corporate banking portfolio. By the end of 2025, the Bank's outstanding corporate loans had increased by 18% year-on-year, while corporate deposits remained stable and the Bank continued to attract a growing number of new business customers.

Notably, SMEs now account for an increasingly significant share of IVB's corporate customer base, reflecting the Bank's long-term commitment to supporting one of Vietnam's most important economic growth drivers. This dedication formed the basis for IVB's recognition as SME Community Support of the Year.

Driving Digital Transformation through IVB Biz+

In the Digital Business Banking Initiative of the Year category, Asian Banking & Finance recognized IVB's achievements in developing its digital banking ecosystem for corporate customers through the IVB Biz+ platform.

Launched in late 2025 and early 2026, IVB Biz+ was developed with a mobile-first approach, replacing the Bank's traditional Internet Banking system and delivering a seamless banking experience across both web and mobile platforms.

The platform enables businesses to perform a comprehensive range of financial transactions, including domestic and international fund transfers, foreign exchange transactions, cash flow management, and loan information inquiries. It also supports multi-level approval workflows directly on mobile devices, while Smart OTP technology combined with biometric authentication enhances security without compromising user convenience.

More than simply a digital transaction platform, IVB Biz+ empowers businesses to improve financial management, streamline approval processes and adapt more effectively to the growing digitalization of business operations. Since launching, the platform has attracted a growing number of corporate customers, marking an important milestone in IVB's digital transformation strategy. Simultaneously, the Bank has also rolled out various promotional programs to encourage greater adoption of its digital banking services among business customers.

Reinforcing a commitment to sustainable growth

While recognizing different areas of achievement, both awards reflect a consistent strategic direction at IVB: placing corporate customers at the heart of its business, delivering practical financial solutions and leveraging technology to enhance customer experience.

Over the years, IVB has continued to invest in building a comprehensive financial ecosystem that encompasses lending solutions, cash management services, and digital banking capabilities, enabling the Bank to meet the increasingly diverse needs of businesses in an era of digital transformation and global integration.

Recognition from a prestigious regional institution such as Asian Banking & Finance not only affirms the quality of IVB's products, services and innovation capabilities, but also serves as a strong motivation for the Bank to continue investing in technology, elevating customer experience, and supporting Vietnamese businesses on their journey toward sustainable growth in the digital economy.
