SBV just allowed Vietcombank to raise its charter capital from VND47 trillion to VND 55 trillion by issuing shares to pay dividends from the remaining profits of 2019 and 2020.
Previously, the bank’s 2022 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders approved the issuance of 856.5 million dividend stocks at a r🍌ate of 18.1%. Once the issuance is completed, its charter capital will increase by nearly VND 8.6 trillion to more than VND 55.89 trillion, thereby surpassing Vietinbank and BIDV to become the second largest bank, after VPBank. Vietcombank said that the mobilised capital will be spent on expanding the business scale to meet the economy’s requirements, and investing in improving management and operation plans. The bank also plans to issue a maximum of nearly 2.8 billion shares to pay dividends from the remaining profit of 2021 and the remaining profit accumulated until the end of 2018, which will boost its charter capital up to VND 27.6 trillion.The proposal i💟s accepted by the SBV and the Ministry of Finance and is about to submit to the National Assembly’s approval, according to Pham Quang Dung, Chairman of the Board Director of Vietcombank.Source:
