Does the bank have branches in 8 provinces and cities eligible for gold bullion trading in Vietnam?
Pursuant to Clause 2, Article 11 of Decree 24/2012/ND-CP stipulating conditions for obtaining the License to trade gold bars as follows:
2. Credit institutions are eligible for the License to trade gold bars when the following conditions are satisfied:
a) Having charter capital of 3,000 (three thousand) billion VND and above.
b) Having registered gold business.
c) Having branches and sale offices in 5 (five) provinces and centrally-affiliated cities or more in Vietnam.
Thus, in case your bank wants to be considered for a License to trade gold bars when it meets all the conditions, it must have a branch network in Vietnam from 5 provinces or more.
In your case, you already have branches in 8 provinces and cities, so you have met this requirement, so if you meet the remaining requirements, you will be considered for a License to trade gold bars in Vietnam.
