The main factor driving credit growth is the rapid recovery of businesses in all fields after the epidemic is under control, so capital demand increases sharply.
In which, the trade and service sector had the highest growth, up 4.83%, reflecting the recovery trend and resilience as well as the areas most directly affected by the epidemic.
The strong increase in credit also reflects the recovery and positive growth of the city's economy and the effectiveness of the economic recovery program of the Government and HCM city, said Mr. Nguyen Duc Lenh./.
