As a specialized industry, banking activities always face potential risks. Keeping that in mind, BIDV has pro-actively standardized its risk management procedures and practices to build a core value system in risk management, which was institutionalized into Resolution on Risk Culture in 2020. BIDV is also the first bank to organize a system-wide contest to evaluate the implementation results of risk culture with sustained effort to spread this critical culture... With the issuance of the Resolution on Risk Culture and robust implementation of practical activities, BIDV aims to build an operating environment characterized by a robust risk culture, which makes a practical and powerful impact on all aspects of BIDV, acting as a ground for safe, sustainable and effective development of BIDV, thereby contributing to a better customer service and a more stable economic development.

The Risk Culture Contest has been organized by BIDV since June 2022, aiming to spread and promote the learning environment, raising awareness and practicing risk culture in all aspects. The Contest has become a useful playground for each BIDV employee to learn, share experiences, understand the meaning of risk in business activities as well as be aware of their own role in preventing and controlling risks for BIDV.

The teams also demonstrated their bravery and intelligence through the debating competition, accurately responding to tough questions given by the Judging Panel as well as making suggestions to improve risk management at BIDV...
