In the mountainous district of Quy Hop, in 2015, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thanh in Tho Son hamlet, Tho Hop commune started a model of breeding cows, using capital from the Social Policy Bank to develop the economy. Although she is a poor household in Tho Hop commune, with her hard-working and studious nature, when the commune opened training classes on basic knowledge of production and breeding, Ms. Thanh registered to participate to learn. Thanks to that, after only 5 years, Ms. Thanh's herd of cows has continuously grown; with the profit from raising cows, she continued to raise pigs, chickens and invested in raising goats. Currently, Ms. Thanh's family has paid off all debts, escaped poverty, and become a well-off household in the hamlet.

It is difficult to list all the effective business models fromLoan source from Social Policy Bankhas been sowing sweet fruits in all localities. It is worth mentioning that, from the perspective of innovation to increase sustainability, currently, lending policies are being designed in the direction of conditional support rather than giving away. With the policy perspective of "giving fishing rods rather than giving fish strings", the branch of the Vietnam Bank for Social Policies in Nghe An province has seriously and promptly implemented the disbursement of capital.

However, according to Mr. Nguyen Van Vinh - Deputy Director of the Provincial Social Policy Bank, capital is only a partial support for the poor and policy households in escaping poverty. The effectiveness of capital depends largely on the guidance of functional sectors such as agriculture, forestry, industry and trade... to help people grasp and apply science and technology in livestock production, economic business and product consumption in the fastest way. People themselves must have the consciousness to rise up; change the way of thinking, the way of doing, know how to calculate in spending, know how to use capital in the most effective way...
