Eximbank was recognized in two categories: "Best Market Maker" - the best foreign exchange market maker in Vietnam, and "Top 5 Volume Traded" - among the Top 5 banks with the largest foreign exchange trading volume in the market. The "Best Market Maker" category specifically acknowledges the bank's capacity to provide liquidity and its active participation in the market as a market maker.
These awards were based on actual foreign exchange transaction data from over 40 credit institutions and foreign bank branches in Vietnam, utilizing LSEG's system and overseen by the State Bank of Vietnam. This evaluation method ensures objectivity and directly reflects each bank's operational capacity in the market.
An Eximbank representative stated at the event that the LSEG awards, derived from market-wide transaction data, underscore the bank's stable development in currency trading. The bank focuses on improving operational capacity, enhancing risk management, and maintaining market liquidity.
