The story

SeaBank operates as a traditional commercial bank in Vietnam with a growing retail and SME lending portfolio. The bank has expanded into digital banking via its Philippine rural bank subsidiary, SeaBank Philippines, which offers a mobile-first deposit and credit product. Internationally, SeaBank Vietnam has developed supply-chain financing programs with major anchor corporates (THACO, Honda, BRG Retail, Central Retail), signaling a push into embedded B2B lending. The Prudential Vietnam partnership indicates a bancassurance distribution strategy layered on top of the core banking franchise.
