and rural areas, always being a pioneer, the main source of credit, convenient products and services for the economy In terms of network operation: Agribank's network system is very large, this is an advantage when providing banking products and services, especially payment services, and is a necessary basis to increase convenience and meet the increasing needs of customers Currently, Agribank has

ensuring the benefits between the parties About the brand and quality of service: The care and support for customers is done methodically and professionally by Agribank In particular, in 2019, Agribank improved the quality of products and services, added utility features, implemented 24/7 interbanking, online deposit, new payment services on E-Banking, etc partners, and met customer needs according to market trends Distribution channel In addition to developing products and services, Agribank focuses on developing distribution channels in line with the 4.0 trend Agribank's distribution

more than 14 million active cards and has always maintained its position of the Top commercial banks in the market with more than 3,000 ATM/CDM, more than 24,000 POS installed and distributed across the provinces, remote areas of the country Swot model of Agribank 3.1 Strengths Agribank's biggest strength is the commercial bank with the largest equity This bank is supported by the Government and development assistance funds of international organizations such as ODA, AFD, and ADB to finance projects on agricultural and rural development, industrialization of agriculture, forestry and fishery This makes Agribank a particularly important position in the country's economic development; play a leading role in the rural financial market However, Agribank has absolute strength in the distribution channel network With a wide network, Agribank has its own advantages such as: stable market share, abundant customers In addition, Agribank has modern information technology infrastructure, multi-function business, multi-industry, multi-field, a large and experienced staff 3.2 Weaknesses The first weakness of Agribank is not meeting the minimum capital adequacy ratio; financial sustainability is not high Financial capacity is still weak by international standards Second, the branch network system in urban areas has not been arranged and planned in a secure and effective manner Infrastructure is not synchronized leading to difficulties for the process of investment and perfecting high technology Third, products and services are not diversified, service quality has not been paid due attention, and has not met the actual needs of consumers Fourth, the organizational model at the Head Office is not streamlined and effective; lack of welltrained staff to meet the requirements of the new era Finally, Agribank is heavily influenced by the Government, operating completely not for profit, so its competitive advantage has not been fully exploited 3.3 Opportunities Nowadays, Vietnam's deeper and deeper integration into the world economy is a great opportunity for banks, especially Agribank The rapid development of scientific progress will give Agribank the opportunity to raise and improve the level of science and technology In addition, Vietnam is an economy that always achieves high growth, but a stable and safe environment creates favorable conditions for the development of the bank But besides that, the banking industry is also under a lot of pressure to maintain its role as an important capital conduit for the whole economy 3.4 Threats Vietnam's economy is integrating deeper and wider into the international economy, both an opportunity and a challenge for the banking industry in general and Agribank in particular Challenges when Vietnam relaxes operating conditions for foreign banks in line with Vietnam's implementation of WTO commitments, creating competition between domestic and foreign banks Not only that, among domestic banks, there is also competition between state banks and joint stock banks These banks are increasingly dynamic, flexible and responsive However, products that replace banking services are increasingly being perfected and become rivals and heavyweights Even within the bank itself, there are many difficulties when implementing digital transformation in terms of synchronization and standardization of technical infrastructure Besides, the COVID-19 pandemic is a thermometer that measures the "health" of the economy and the bank itself Bank performance The Vietnam Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (Agribank) has just released its separate financial statements for mid-2021 Despite operating in the context of difficulties due to the impact of covid-19, with many synchronous and effective solutions, Agribank has fulfilled its political mission and the role of Vietnam's leading commercial bank This bank is mainly invested in agricultural, farmer and rural development, with the proportion of "Tam nong" investment accounting for 70% of the total outstanding economy, accounting for the largest proportion of agricultural and rural investment credit market share in Vietnam Accordingly, at the end of the first months of the year, the bank's pre-tax profit reached VND 9,464 billion, profit after tax was VND 7,572 billion, up 40% over the same period, ranking third in the Big4 group after Vietcombank and VietinBank The main reason for the positive increase in bank profits is the reduction of operating costs, increased debt recovery to handle risks, and all business segments of the bank are profitable Specifically, accumulated in the first months of the year, Agribank continues to be the leading bank in terms of total operating income with VND33,581 billion, an increase of nearly 32% over the same period In particular, the main contribution is net interest income with VND 25,973 billion, an increase of 29% Interest income increased by 3.9% while interest expense decreased by nearly 11% compared to the same period in 2020, helping the bank's net interest income increase sharply As of June 30, 2021, Agribank's total assets reached more than VND1.6 million, up 3.4% compared to the beginning of the year and up 10.5% compared to the same period last year In particular, customer lending reached VND 1,232,051 billion, a slight increase of 1.6% compared to the beginning of the year and continued to lead the market in credit market share Customer mobilization reached VND 1,467,071 billion, an increase of 4.2% In the context of Covid-19, Agribank has promptly implemented many solutions to support and solve difficulties for customers affected by the pandemic under the direction of the Government and the SBV, such as restructuring the repayment term, interest exemption, fees, and new loans In particular, restructuring, exemption of interest and fees for 12,500 customers with outstanding debts of VND 30,109 billion, new loans of more than VND 203,000 billion to more than 50,000 customers Agribank also implemented many credit programs with preferential interest rates, including: Doubling the limit of the customer support program affected by the epidemic with the scale of VND 100,000 billion, the interest rate, support fee up to 2.5% per year; preferential loans for small and mediumsized enterprises of VND 30,000 billion, supporting a maximum fee of 2%; preferential loans for import-export customers of VND 15,000 billion and US$300 million; large-scale customer loans of VND 15,000 billion; consumer loans of VND 20,000 billion Index 6/2021 12/2020 ROE 10.17% 14.39% ROA 0.47% 0.68% NIM 1.6% 1.28% C/I 3,75% 3,92% Equity multiplier 4,62 4,725 Agribank's ROE and ROA indexes have declined compared to the end of 2020 Agribank's ROE decreased mainly from declining ROA Although both the difference between deposit and interest rates (NIM) increased and the bank's ability to control costs (C/I) flourished, the ROA decreased sharply (nearly 30%) leading to ROE also decreased At that time, the government asked banks to reduce interest rates to support citizens during the COVID-19 pandemic Agribank had also offered its own support packages to the people, so ROA reduction is inevitable Thus, although Agribank's ROE decreased, it did not really affect the profitability of this bank In the near future, having overcome the COVID 19 pandemic, Agribank will likely grow strongly and make more profit Despite the decline, Agribank's business performance indicators are still very positive compared to the Big in particular and the banking industry in general Agribank's return on equity (ROE), surpassing that of Vietinbank (9.75%), reached the highest with 10.17% in the Big At the same time, the profit margin on total assets (ROA) reached 0.47% ranked second, only after 0.6% of Vietinbank Non performing loans (NPL) are a very important indicator in evaluating the performance of a bank According to statistics, the average NPL ratio in the financial statements of Vietnamese banks is at 1.96% in 2020 In the second half of 2021, Agribank's bad debts accounted for only 0.82% of total outstanding loans, the lowest in the Big (BIDV: 1.39%, Vietcombank: 0.91% and Vietinbank: 1.38%) and decreased to nearly 0.9% compared to the end of 2020 The above indicators show that Agribank is operating very well, the credit quality has improved significantly Although the business results in the first months of the year are positive, it is likely that Agribank's profit for the whole year is unlikely to increase sharply Covid 19 is taking place very complicatedly, a series of provinces and cities must be separated in the third quarter of 2021, causing credit to slow down, bad debts tend to increase, the recovery of bad debts through civil proceedings and handling collateral will also be very difficult II The Nature of Customer-centricity (thế giới/ VN nói chung) Customers are

loan program with preferential interest rates for individual customers in urban areas with a scale of VND 20,000 billion, accumulated loan sales of VND 1,351 billion with 1,763 customers, Outstanding problems Customer-centricity is an inevitable trend for all banks because customer- centricity is a way of banking based on trust and fairness that uses the knowledge of customers to meet their needs and achieve sustainable, valuable, long-term relationships To put customers at the center, banks need to understand what customers want, what customers need, and what factors customers care about when using and choosing a bank's services The customer-centricity trends of banks around the world are mainly focused on major issues: marketing and communication, sales and service, products and pricing, and the customer experience The above trend comes from research, demand survey and customer analysis For example, a popular survey of Canadian customers found the seven most important factors that led customers to choose a new bank: Ads and marketing, Image, sales approach, channels, product offerings, pricing and customer service As a state-owned bank and the largest bank in Vietnam, Agribank has done a great job in building Customer Benefit Packages; marketing and promoting the bank's image However, up to now, there are still some issues related to price and fees of services; impression of banking and staff; customer experiences Without mentioning the reasons why customers decide to choose a new bank, the IT Landscape of the bank is such an indirect factor affecting customers, and this is also a limitation that Agribank has not done 2.1 The weaknesses of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system Customer Relationship Management is the work of approaching and communicating with customers, managing customer information, thereby serving customers better and establishing sustainable relationships with them In other words, based on data and information obtained from customers, the store will devise a reasonable and effective customer care strategy CRM not only plays an important role in the business, but also contributes to helping the bank have a stronger position in the customer's mind This is an activity that brings a lot of practical benefits to the bank Currently, Agribank's technology resources are not really rich, equipment and transmission lines often occur errors Limitations in CRM interface design lead to difficulties for first-time users Appeared in the world since the 1970s, but in the early 2000s, the application of CRM solutions really started in Vietnam Due to the difference in accessing time and technology, experience in building a CRM implementation process is poor, encountering many problems in installation and operation The first issue is changing the traditional work culture Not only does an individual have to change their work habits, but the bank also has to change the way it operates As people get used to the traditional way of working, switching to a new one is a challenge that not everyone can quickly adapt to The second problem is the high cost Currently, foreign CRM systems typically have prices ranging from a few hundred to several thousand dollars per month, the more features, the higher the price This is not a low level, even large banks like Agribank need to think carefully before deciding to cooperate The final problem is difficult support Software from abroad will face certain difficulties if the bank need help or repair, due to differences in time zones, languages and long-distance so in most cases the banks will have to find their own documentation, research and mastery practice before they start doing it 2.2 Inflexible E-Mobile Banking Online transactions through e-banking are now quite popular and convenient for users Agribank has also implemented agribank E-Mobile Banking application to create flexibility and convenience for customers Although the application has been operating for quite a long time, there are also sometimes problems that make customers unsatisfied Agribank e-mobile banking system errors occur due to various reasons, but most of them are from the bank Because of the increasing volume of customers using the service, sometimes the system is overloaded to maintain delaying people's transactions Some common errors such as: Overloaded systems causing failure to log in are affected on the customer's transaction; in some cases, customers not even receive OTP codes to make transactions; system errors mistakenly transferred money but did not receive Agribank E-Mobile Banking app also received feedback from customers as an unfriendly interface that makes it difficult for first-time users or older people In addition, the slow response application causes delays, time-consuming of customers, and the steps of operation are not optimal A perfect example would be that each time the customers’ login is asked to take a photo of their ID that annoys the user Customer dissatisfaction with Agribank's e-banking app is reflected in some negative feedback on the App Store and Play Store According to the evaluation on The Play, the application only reached 3.1/5 stars, quite low compared to the assessment of some other applications at some other banks such as MBbank, TPbank, VPbank, According to Anh Thu customers on the App Store, "The system is very slow in transferring, often encountering errors This makes me very unsatisfied, the bank needs to upgrade to fix the system better." Another customer responded: "Continuous maintenance application Even though I've been transferring money for a few days, the recipient hasn't received it yet." The above application errors come from the weak application of Agribank's technology Agribank needs to improve the quality of service to meet demand and regain the trust of customers 2.3 Relatively high fees When using the bank's services, customers are often interested in fees such as account opening fees, account management fees, withdrawal fees, bank account maintenance fees and annual fees The types of card services that customers most often use are domestic debit cards and credit/Visa/Mastercard cards Compared to other banks, the fees of services of these cards, Agribank's fee is classified as high While the fee for opening an account at some banks such as TPBank, VPBank or MBBank is free, Agribank's customers have to pay an amount of 100,000VND 500,000VND to open the card After opening an account, Agribank requires customers to maintain a minimum balance of 50,000VND/account and pay annual fees ranging from 10,000VND to 50,000VND depending on the card type For account management fees, Agribank includes types of fees: SMS Banking (10,000VND/ month for individual customers, 50,000VND/ month for corporate customers); Internet banking (50,000 VND/ year for individual customers, 200,000VND/ month for institutional customers) and E-Mobile banking (10,000VND/ month for individual customers, 50,000VND/ month for corporate customers) These fees are considered quite high compared to other banks, most large banks such as BIDV, Vietcombank or Techcombank only charge one of the three types of fees In addition, Agribank also has BankPlus service with a monthly service maintenance fee of VND 10,000 per account In addition, there is also a co-owned account management fee according to customer requirements (20,000VND/ month), annual VND account management fee (5,000VND/ month) Money transfer is one of the most used banking services The fees for transferring money to banks will usually vary And depending on each form of money transfer with the system, other systems will also have a difference in these fees Agribank is one of the banks with the highest transfer fees from VND 3,300 to VND 55,000 According to the comparison table of money transfer fees in the same banking system, the lowest transfer fee with banks for transactions under VND 10 million is VIB, TPBank, Sacombank, ACB, Techcombank, Vietinbank, these banks are free to transfer money and Agribank is one of the banks with the highest internal money transfer fee with a fee of VND 3,300 Bank Transfer fee < 10milion Vietcombank 2.000 Vietinbank BIDV 50 milion 100 milion 5.000 Fee of charge 1.100 0,01% số tiền chuyển MBbank 10 000 Techcombank free of charge ACB free of charge Agribank 3.300 Sacombank free of charge TPbank free of charge VIB free of charge Besides, the transfer fee to other banks in different banking systems has a large difference It can be commented from the table below, currently the transfer fee of Techcombank is the lowest for transactions under VND 10 million and the highest is ACB bank with 10,500 +0.028% of the transfer amount, Agribank is the second highest when the fee fluctuates from VND 8,800 to VND 55,000 Ngân hàng Vietcombank Phí chuyển tiền
