Hai Phat Investment Misuses Hundreds of Billions of Dong from Bond Issuance

The Government Inspectorate recently released its findings on the compliance with policies and laws regarding private corporate bond issuance and the use of bond proceeds from January 1, 2015, to June 30, 2023. Hai Phat Investment Corporation was found to have misallocated hundreds of billions of dong from its bond issuance, using the funds for purposes other than those stated in the issuance plan.

Hai Phat Investment Corporation misallocated 250 out of 450 billion dong from the HPXH2122011 bond issuance. The bonds were intended to fund specific projects, including the Urban Residential Area Project at Km3 and Km4, Hai Yen Ward, Mong Cai City, Quang Ninh Province.

However, the company used 9.107 billion dong to compensate households affected by the Mai Pha New Urban Area Project in Lang Son City; 51.490 billion dong to pay for land use rights auctions for the Commercial Housing Project on extended B6, B10, and TT12 roads in Lao Cai Province; 5.027 billion dong for resettlement compensation for the An Pha New Urban Area Project in Lang Son City; and an additional 184.37 billion dong for other expenses.

Hai Phat Investment also misallocated 103.968 billion dong out of 400 billion dong from the HP-BOND2020/RL01, HP-BOND2020/RL02, and HP-BOND2020/RL03 bond issuances.

These bonds were intended for business cooperation and investment in other company activities. Instead, the funds were directed to the Cao Bang Project.

Regarding the 100 billion dong from the HPXH2122002 bond issuance, the funds were meant for project implementation and land use rights auctions in various provinces (including Bac Giang, Lao Cai, and Hanoi), as well as for covering legitimate and regular company expenses.

However, Hai Phat Investment used the entire 100 billion dong to increase the charter capital of Saphire Investment Company Limited.

For the 104.248 billion dong out of 300 billion dong from the HPXH2224001 bond issuance, the funds were intended for investment in projects such as the Urban Residential Area Project at Km3 and Km4, Hai Yen Ward, Mong Cai City (Phase 1), Quang Ninh Province, and the Ngoc Island Resort Villa Project. They were also meant to cover regular and legitimate company expenses.

Instead, Hai Phat Investment used 104.248 billion dong for a joint investment in the Kien An – Hai Phong Project with Solaris Vietnam Investment Corporation.

Regarding the HPX2124009 bond issuance, the funds were intended for business operations, including regular expenses, construction costs, office renovations, tax obligations, and investment in projects like the Mai Pha New Urban Area Project in Lang Son City.

However, Hai Phat Investment used 1.9785 billion dong to settle debts with PSP Urban Services Corporation and 51.941 billion dong to pay for land use rights auctions for the Commercial Housing Project on extended B6 road.
