By September 30, 2022, BCG’s total assets were VND43,752 billion ($1.76 billion), up 16.1% compared to the beginning of the year. Owner equity jumped 63.3% to VND13,634 billion ($549 million) after the nine months.

For the 2023-2026 period, renewable energy will play a key role in BCG’s growth strategy.
