Vietnamese automaker VinFast has officially entered into a pivotal financial partnership with PT Bank Central Asia Tbk. (BCA), one of Indonesia’s leading private banks.
VinFast said in a statement on last Friday that this collaboration is set to provide comprehensive and strategic credit facilities for VinFast’s dealer partners across Indonesia, significantly bolstering the sales network and accelerating the nation’s green mobility transformation.
Under the terms of this dealer financing cooperation agreement, BCA is committed to offering flexible credit facilities tailored for VinFast’s entire dealer network.
This crucial funding is designed to facilitate the procurement of VinFast electric vehicles (EVs) and genuine parts, ensuring a stable supply chain.
The credit facilities are diverse, encompassing a regular ceiling for consistent operational needs, along with seasonal/fleet ceilings for peak demand periods or bulk purchases of vehicles and parts.
This tailored approach addresses varied business needs, enabling dealer partners to optimize cash flow and manage inventory effectively.
Furthermore, VinFast and BCA have collaboratively developed favorable payment terms and efficient financial processes.
This empowers dealer partners with greater autonomy in managing their cash flow and accelerating capital turnover.
As a result, fund disbursements and account management become quicker and more convenient, while minimizing complex paperwork, allowing dealers to focus intensely on their core business operations.
The primary objective of this strategic collaboration is to provide optimal financial accessibility for VinFast dealers, thereby propelling the expansion of the distribution network and strengthening VinFast’s presence across the Indonesian EV market.
“As one of Indonesia’s private financial institutions, BCA is dedicated to supporting and driving the nation’s long-term economic growth, particularly within the burgeoning electric vehicle sector,” said Denny Haryanto, Senior Vice President Corporate Banking BCA.
“By providing credit facilities to VinFast’s dealer partners, BCA is not only contributing to the electrified transportation industry but also enabling ‘green enterprises’ to pursue sustainable development,
“We are committed to supporting the government’s energy transition program and emission reduction targets,” he added
Meanwhile, Kariyanto Hardjosoemarto, Chief Executive Officer of VinFast Indonesia, shared that the firm is proud to partner with the esteemed financial institution BCA on its journey to penetrate the Indonesian market.
“This dealer financing cooperation agreement will grant our dealers essential access to capital, enabling them to expand operations,
“Through this, VinFast reaffirms our strong commitment to building and nurturing a comprehensive green transformation ecosystem,” he said.
With BCA’s financial backing, he said the firm and its dealer partners are confident in bringing VinFast electric vehicles closer to Indonesian consumers, contributing significantly to the nation’s sustainable development goals.
