Shinhan Finance accelerates “Green Finance” strategy: Proactively building a financial foundation for clean energy

In active response to the Prime Minister’s Directive No. 10/CT-TTg on promoting rooftop solar development, Shinhan Vietnam Finance Company Limited (Shinhan Finance) is continuously implementing activities to expand its partner ecosystem. These steps clearly demonstrate the company’s strategic vision of making “Green Finance” a practical catalyst for the energy transition in Vietnam.

Actively expanding the strategic partner network in clean energy

Shinhan Finance’s proactiveness is clearly demonstrated through two major events taking place consecutively within just a few days. On the afternoon of April 14, 2026, in Ho Chi Minh City, Shinhan Finance officially signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Nhat Hung Environment Technology Company Limited. The event established a comprehensive cooperation framework aimed at delivering integrated solutions to customers, seamlessly combining equipment supply, installation, and preferential installment payment options. Prior to this, on April 11, 2026, Shinhan Finance also accompanied the “Next-Generation Solar Power” seminar organized by Lien Thanh Vietnam Mechanical and Electrical Joint Stock Company (LITHACO) in Can Tho. At this event, the company introduced practical financial solutions, supporting customers in easily accessing smart energy technology paired with energy storage systems (BESS) – a solution highly encouraged by the Government.

Flexible financial solutions help remove cost barriers

To realize its commitment to accompanying the people and the Government, Shinhan Finance has proactively designed specialized loan packages to minimize the initial financial burden on customers. Instead of having to prepare a large amount of capital, customers can now easily access loan limits of up to VND 100 million with no income proof required, along with highly competitive interest rates. Notably, the application approval process is optimized for high speed, taking only about 15 minutes. With a widespread support network across 34 provinces and cities, this financial solution is creating the most favorable conditions for every household to own a clean, stable, and cost-saving power system.

Comprehensive “Green Finance” ecosystem towards ESG goals

Notably, Shinhan Finance's “Green Finance” strategy is not confined solely to the solar energy sector. In alignment with the ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) development direction of its parent company, Shinhan Card, and the broader Shinhan ecosystem, the company is deploying a diverse range of green financial products. Specifically, alongside providing preferential capital for rooftop solar systems, Shinhan Finance is also strongly rolling out competitive financing programs to support customers in easily transitioning from gasoline vehicles to electric vehicles. These synchronized efforts demonstrate the company’s comprehensive perspective: not only addressing the clean energy issue but also aspiring to cultivate a green, sustainable, and eco-friendly lifestyle across multiple aspects of daily life.

Long-term vision towards Net Zero

Identifying the energy transition as an inevitable shift of society and the financial market, the practical actions mentioned above are proof that Shinhan Finance is not merely following the trend but is proactively building a solid financial foundation to make the “Green Transformation” happen faster and more sustainably in Vietnam. This agility has brought impressive results, as within Q1 of 2026 alone, the company’s disbursement volume for rooftop solar loans increased by over 200%, while the installation partner network also expanded by more than 120% compared to the entire year of 2025.

Through the series of collaborative activities with Nhat Hung, LITHACO, and many other reputable partners, Shinhan Finance is affirming its role as a solid connector between the Government, renewable energy enterprises, and the people. Shinhan Finance’s long-term vision is to become one of the leading entities in green finance in Vietnam, committed to supporting the nation’s Net Zero goal, with the expectation that every roof will become not only a living space but also a source of clean, sustainable energy for the future.
