The workshop’s content focused on finding solutions and effective capital planning mechanisms for enterprises’ long-term growth strategy in the context of the global financial crisis.
At the workshop, TienPhongBank’s senior specialists listed the obstacles that banks and enterprises are facing, such as:
Financial status and direct relations between bank and enterprise executives, as well as the repayment of debts play a vital role in maintaining the credit relationship between banks and enterprises;

Other loan safeguards, such as cash transfer to seller, enterprises’ inventory supervision are major obstacles to the enterprises business.
During the workshop, TienPhongBank’s specialists also gave solutions to the above challenges. Most notable is the recommendation for enterprises to make use of consultation services, especially from banks. Enterprises should also try to develop business customs by constructing a long-term business plan and urgent business initiatives.
