Banks: Will a Rising Tide Lift All Boats?
Vietnam will likely see a swift rebound in economic growth, which will support banks' asset quality.

Discussion Topics:
- Will an economic rebound help mitigate banks’ asset risks?
- Are banks prepared for prolonged high inflation?
- How will new tech, cyber and ESG risks shape banks’ credit profiles?
