HDBank Partners with London Stock Exchange for Global Capital Access

HDBank has forged a strategic alliance with the London Stock Exchange (LSE) aiming to facilitate Vietnamese businesses in reaching international capital markets. This initiative aligns with Vietnam's ambition for a 10% GDP growth, urging advancements in infrastructure, technology, manufacturing, and green economy sectors. The partnership underscores the Vietnamese government's strategy to diversify financing sources beyond traditional banking, leveraging international funds.

The collaboration targets cross-border fundraising, enabling Vietnamese firms to issue shares, bonds, and other financial instruments on the London market. It also focuses on linking with global institutional investors and upholding robust corporate governance standards. HDBank, a prominent Vietnamese financial institution, plans to issue up to $300 million in international green bonds, enhancing its sustainable financing approach.

Supported by VIFC, Vietnamese companies like Hoa Sen and THACO are set to benefit from this agreement, gaining access to global capital and expertise. The initiative is expected to enhance the transparency and governance standards, spotlighting Vietnam’s growing integration into the international financial system.
