Vietnam Corporate Bond

Institutions purchasing corporate bonds in the primary market accounted for 94.8% of the issuance volume, with credit institutions (53.5%) and securities companies (21.9%) being the main buyers.

New corporate bond rules introduced by the Government in early March led to the issuance of bonds totaling VND23.8 trillion ($1.01 billion).

The growth was driven by both the Government and corporate bond segments.

While there was a turbulent period, it is expected the market to become more transparent and sustainable in the long term.
