Policy credit implemented by the Provincial Social Policy Bank is truly a bright spot in the implementation of the poverty reduction target, contributing to ensuring social security, economic development and new rural construction in the area. The overall poverty rate of the province decreased from 12.1% in 2015 to 5.54% at the end of 2018 according to the standards for the period 2016 - 2020.

Speaking at the conference, delegates continued to affirm that Directive No. 40 has truly entered life, strongly and positively impacting policy credit activities. However, Nghe An is a province with a low starting point economy; budget revenue has not met spending needs, and local capital for entrusted lending is limited.

Therefore, in the coming time, it is necessary to pay attention to increasing capital sources, continuing to implement the loan program for newly escaped poor households when the prescribed period expires; at the same time, allowing to extend the time for households to enjoy credit policies for newly escaped poor households from the time they are removed from the list of poor households and near-poor households from a maximum of 3 years to 5 years. Increase the maximum loan term of loan programs for newly escaped poor households; loans to support job creation to 10 years to match the production and business cycle of crops and livestock with long growth periods such as growing fruit trees and industrial crops.

Some districts also proposed expanding the loan target, raising the maximum loan amount for some programs...

To continue to effectively implement Directive 40 of the Secretariat, it is recommended that authorities at all levels from the provincial to the grassroots level identify the task of directing social policy credit activities as one of the important tasks in the programs, plans, and regular activities of agencies and units. Direct Party committees and authorities at all levels to promote the achieved results, overcome existing problems and difficulties; closely monitor the management, inspection, and supervision of social policy credit activities.

Concluding the conference, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Dinh Viet Hong emphasized: Based on the results achieved in the past 5 years and the shortcomings and limitations arising in the implementation process, local Party committees and authorities need to continue to clearly define responsibilities and tasks to assign specific tasks to each department, office and individual to effectively implement social policy credit in the coming period; at the same time, actively direct and regularly urge to ensure effectiveness.

Departments and branches are responsible for advising the province in mobilizing resources; perfecting policy mechanisms; allocating state budget capital; supporting facilities, equipment and means for the local CSXH bank. The Vietnam Fatherland Front and socio-political organizations need to strengthen propaganda and mobilization work to ensure that social policy credit policies reach the people, especially those in need, those in need...
