Cambodia’s financial sector remains on a sustainable growth path despite the Covid-19 pandemic squeezing crucial industries, National Bank of Cambodia (NBC) governor Chea Chanto said.
Tourism, garments and footwear have borne the brunt of the Covid-19 (coronavirus) impact, he said, whereas the financial and agriculture sectors have continued to grow.
“The NBC has laid out a slew of measures to improve arrangements for banks and financial institutions to command enough liquidity and encourage them to re-schedule loans to better provide for clients affected by the pandemic,” said Chanto.
