Eximbank has conducted the assessment and screening of candidates in a public and professional manner in accordance with international standards and the legal system regarding the appointment of the chairman of the Board of Directors.

The Eximbank’s pioneering in using independent assessment tools compliant to international standards in corporate governance is a very positive signal, reflecting the bank’s expectations for achieving high standards, transparency and professionalism in governance.

Luong Thi Cam Tu participated in the bank as a member of the board since April 2018. Despite her short time participation in the bank, her contributions to the stability and development of Eximbank are substantial.

Tu holds a master’s degree in Business Administration and is known as the youngest woman to become a CEO in the banking sector at the age of 35. She has occupied a number of senior management and executive positions at credit institutions with different scales and forms of ownership.

The appointment of Tu is expected to create the solidarity between the Board of Directors, Eximbank’s shareholders as well as all employees of the bank for the common purpose of a strong and developed bank.
