A workshop organized by The Investor on the sustainable and professional development of Vietnam's corporate bond market will take place in Hanoi on August 16, 2024.

Developing a sustainable and professional corporate bond market is a key policy of the government. According to Decision 1726/QD-TTg on stock market development by 2030, issued by the Prime Minister on December 29, 2023, the government aims for the outstanding value of corporate bonds to reach 20% of GDP by 2025 and 25% by 2030.

The local corporate bond market has been recovering since 2022. According to the Ministry of Finance, 41 businesses have issued bonds worth VND110.2 trillion ($4.39 billion) since the beginning of 2024, a 2.6-fold increase compared to the previous year.

However, challenges remain in the corporate bond market. Therefore, the workshop is expected to generate solutions to overcome obstacles hindering its development.
