Vietnam's stock and bond markets vastly outperformed peer countries in the region over the past five years, reflecting the low cost of funds for the government and corporations alike.
EuroCham would like to kick off the New Year with this unique event with our special guest speakers who will share their thoughts on the challenges and opportunities to the financial deepening agenda in Vietnam, such as:
- It is timely, as Vietnam has graduated to a full IBRD country and must rely more on market-based financing?
- Will the remarkable market performance continue?
- Is the low cost of funds permanent? What are the potential risks and opportunities?
- Has equitisation of SOEs in 2018 been faster than in the past?
- What are the hurdles for slow equitisation?
- How can Vietnam attract more high quality foreign indirect investment into its domestic capital market?
- Is issuing corporate bonds in foreign markets possible for Vietnamese enterprises? Vinamilk has talked about this for a long time but has not been able to do so.
- What are the obstacles to issuing overseas?
