For the FTSE Vietnam Index (a reference for the FTSE ETF), VTP is expected to be added with a weight of 0.81% after meeting the full criteria for liquidity, free-float ratio, and foreign ownership ratio. On the other hand, EVF of EVN Finance may be removed from the portfolio for failing to meet the market cap weight requirement.
Regarding the MarketVector Vietnam Local Index (a reference for the VNM ETF), not only is VTP expected to be included, but NAB, belonging to Nam A Bank, is also forecasted to join with a weight of 0.79%. Conversely, BVH, a subsidiary of the Bao Viet Group, risks being eliminated as its market capitalization currently falls outside the threshold of 98% of the accumulated capitalization of eligible stocks.
In terms of expected trading volume, BSC Research estimates that FTSE ETF will purchase 439,145 shares of VTP and VNM ETF will buy an additional 1.1 million shares.
