Vietnam central bank held emergency meetings with banks over liquidity, say sources

HANOI, Nov 6 (Reuters): Vietnam's central bank held emergency meetings this week with commercial banks to discuss liquidity in the system, two informed sources told Reuters during a special interview, as lenders face pressure from tightening credit conditions and higher interest rates.

One of the sources with knowledge of the issue, who asked to remain anonymous because the information was confidential, said the State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) has held three meetings with more than a dozen banks this week, to address "difficulties" for some lenders to access sufficient liquidity and about deposits in the system.
