Tien Phong Commercial Joint Stock Bank (TPBank) recently held its annual shareholders' meeting to approve a plan to have its pre-tax profit in 2021 to rise by 32% compared to 2020, equivalent to about VND5.8 trillion.

The target is high but it considered appropriate in the context of the economy still facing challenges from Covid-19. It is in line with the Government's policy, and measures to stimulate economic growth and macroeconomic stability.

TPBank of brothers Do Minh Phu and Do Anh Tu also plans to have total assets of VND250 trillion by December 31, 2021, an increase of 21%. Total mobilization is expected to reach over VND221.8 trillion, up 20%.

In 2021, TPBank will accelerate digital transformation, focusing on building IT infrastructure, platforms, and essential and specialized applications. Thanks to its digital strategy with the LiveBank system, TPBank has quadrupled the number of customers opening new accounts and cards; the Current Account Savings Account (CASA) increased by 5 times and the service time fell by 40-60% in 2020.
