The bank has built an expansive network of 29 branches, 12 of them in Phnom Penh and 17 spread out in other Provinces. It has invested to establish a strong service culture and mobile platform for retail and commercial banking.

It supported Smile Cambodia – to provide free cleft-lip and palate operations, several other NGOs, sporting events and financial forums.
Vattanac Bank promises transparency and to act with the ethics and accountability of a highly responsible corporate citizen. Vattanac Bank is doing good deeds and good business, which contributes to its trustworthy reputation and strong financial position.
