LPBank spends more than 7,000 billion VND to pay cash dividends

Loc Phat Bank (LPBank) will spend more than VND7,000 billion to pay cash dividends at 25% - one of the highest rates on the market today.

That was one of the resolutions passed at LPBank 's 2025 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders held on April 27 in Ninh Binh.

LPBank's dividend policy is always one of the factors that attracts special attention from shareholders. According to the resolution passed at the General Meeting, LPBank will pay cash dividends at the rate of 25%.

Chairman of the Board of Directors Nguyen Duc Thuy affirmed: LPBank always wants to bring maximum benefits to customers, shareholders and partners. “We want to pay the highest annual dividend possible. However, due to the unpredictable developments of the world and Vietnam's economic situation, we will submit to the General Meeting of Shareholders to pay dividends based on actual annual business results.
The Board of Directors also hopes that customers, shareholders and partners will continue to support and accompany the Bank to complete all set goals, as a basis for dividend payment," Mr. Nguyen Duc Thuy emphasized.

With attractive dividends and a sustainable development strategy, LPBank not only strengthens the trust of current shareholders but also opens up opportunities to attract new investors, thereby creating more momentum for the bank's development in the coming years.
