“An Enticing Offer: Secure a Lucrative 8.2% Annual Interest on VND 50,000 Billion Worth of Bonds”

The funds raised from the bond issuance will serve as a strategic initiative to fortify the bank's Tier 2 capital, enhancing its capital adequacy ratio. This move is designed to position the bank to meet the evolving borrowing needs of its customers, not just in 2024 but also in the years to come.

The Management Board of the Saigon-Hanoi Commercial Joint Stock Bank (SHB) has recently approved the plan to issue bonds to the public in 2024.

Accordingly, SHB plans to issue a total of VND 5,000 billion worth of bonds in two phases (phase 1 expected in Q4/2024; phase 2 expected in Q4/2024 – Q1/2025). The timing and tenor of the bond issues have not yet been announced.

SHB stated that the expected interest rate at the time of issuance is 8.2% per annum. This rate is 2.4 percentage points higher than the highest deposit rate currently offered by SHB.

The bank said that the proceeds from the two bond issues will be used to supplement Tier 2 capital, improve the capital adequacy ratio, and serve SHB’s customer lending needs in 2024 and subsequent years in industries such as manufacturing; construction; transport and warehousing; real estate business; production and distribution of electricity, gas, hot water, steam, and air conditioning.

SHB will use the proceeds from its customers’ loan repayments to repay the principal and interest on the bonds. The expected lending rate for the funds raised from the bond issues is about 11.2%, 3% per year higher than the bond issuance rate.

It is known that, so far this year, the bank has successfully raised a total of VND 4,000 billion through three bond offerings.
