This award is a prestigious accolade recognizing inspirational and high-performing businesses in the Asia-Pacific region.

The APEA 2025 award ceremony took place in Ho Chi Minh City on Thursday.

With the theme “Showcasing Future-Ready Enterprises,” this year’s program honored organizations and leaders for their pioneering and active adaptability amid rapid technological advancement and global economic uncertainty.

In his opening remarks, Dr. Fong Chan Onn, chairman of Enterprise Asia, emphasized: “Successful enterprises in the new era are those that dare to challenge conventions, prioritize sustainable development, and create corporate value that goes beyond profit. The companies honored tonight are symbols of vision and resilience - qualities that will help shape the future of Vietnam’s economy.”

A representative of MB said: “This award is a well-deserved recognition of MB’s continuous journey of innovation, creativity, and customer experience enhancement. It also affirms our unwavering commitment to delivering long-term, meaningful value to shareholders, customers, and the community.”

Currently, MB serves over 33 million individual and corporate customers, with 98.6% of transactions conducted through digital channels - a rate on par with leading banks in Asia.

Under its 2022-2026 strategic roadmap, MB defines digital transformation not merely as a goal but as a core enabler to create superior values for customers and offer them seamless experiences and an ecosystem with wide and deep connections.

As of now, MB Group’s total assets exceed VND1,300 trillion ($49.35 billion), ranking it among the Top 5 banks in Vietnam. This achievement reflects the bank's years of sustainable growth, stable capital mobilization strength, capability to meet diverse customer needs, and vision to expand its market presence.
