Five banks, Agribank, Eximbank, Sacombank, the BIDV and Vietinbank, are the first commercial banks to participate in the programme, which runs form April 1 to March 31 next year.

In the next 10 days, Agribank plans to disburse 151.87 billion VND (7.25 million USD) in short and medium term loans to three enterprises.
Sacombank is currently appraising loan applications from a number of companies. They have applied for total loans of 258.6 billion VND (12.3 million USD).
