Visas new representative office will direct its businesses in Viet Nam, Cambodia and Laos, adding that the expansion comes in the wake of significant overall growth and positive prospects in the three Southeast Asian countries. The rep office in Viet Nam will also help to expand Visa’s credit card business, accelerate the development of its infrastructure and popularise the use of credit cards in the region. This year, Visa in Viet Nam will focus on equipping merchants to accept electronic payments, particularly those made with debit cards. It will also work with local banks and regulators to enable Viet Nam’s payment industry to make the jump to the most modern payment technology and standards. Some Vietnamese commercial banks have become members of Visa International, including the State-owned Vietcombank, the Asia Joint Stock Commercial Bank and the joint stock Viet Nam Export Import Bank (Eximbank).
