Regarding difficulties and obstacles in accessing credit, Novaland representative said that in 2023, the State Bank had issued many instructions to maximally support the business community in accessing capital. However, for Novaland, legality is a key factor because the Company faced large receivables from sold products, but if it cannot be handled legally, the bank will not release the temporarily locked money and at the same time, it is a barrier for banks to disburse new capital as well as continue financing for home buyers.
