“VPBank’s Impressive Performance: A Comprehensive Overview”
VPBank’s stock, VPB, witnessed a remarkable surge during the August 20 trading session, closing above 36,550 VND per share. The previous day, on August 19, it had also reached the maximum allowed daily limit. Since the beginning of August, VPB has climbed an impressive 41.6%.
At the end of today’s session, VPBank’s market capitalization stood at 290 trillion VND, roughly equivalent to 11 billion USD. The bank currently ranks second in terms of market capitalization on the stock exchange, just behind Vietcombank (526 trillion VND). Four banks: VPBank, Techcombank, BIDV, and VietinBank, are closely competing in the 270–290 trillion VND market cap range.
VPBank has been in the spotlight recently due to its subsidiary, VPBank Securities Joint Stock Company (VPBankS), announcing a resolution by its Board of Directors to seek approval from existing shareholders through written consent. While VPBankS has not disclosed the specific agenda items, sources indicate that one key item is the company’s plan to conduct an initial public offering (IPO) in Q4 of this year.
As part of VPBank’s financial ecosystem, the VPBankS IPO is expected to generate significant revenue for the parent bank and provide a boost to its long-term growth prospects.
Additionally, another positive development for VPB is the issuance of Circular No. 23/2025/TT-NHNN by the State Bank of Vietnam, which will come into effect on October 1, 2025. This circular reduces the mandatory reserve ratio by 50% for credit institutions that are subject to compulsory transfer and support under approved plans. Vietcombank, HDBank, MB, and VPBank are among the beneficiaries of this new regulation.
In related news, Ms. Bui Cam Thi and Ms. Bui Hai Ngan, daughters of Mr. Bui Hai Quan, Vice Chairman of VPBank’s Board of Directors, have recently registered to purchase a total of 40 million VPB shares. The transactions are expected to take place between August 25 and September 23, 2025, through either order matching or negotiation. Prior to this, neither Ms. Thi nor Ms. Ngan held any VPB shares.
