The total net asset held by Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in Vietnam exceeded VND60.2 trillion ($2.28 billion) as of November 7, marking a 5.6% increase compared to the end of 2024.
In November 2025, ETFs recorded a net outflow of VND32 billion ($1.21 million), raising the total net withdrawal since the beginning of 2025 to over VND15.6 trillion ($593 million).
The top stocks sold by ETFs during the week starting on November 3 included VIC, VHM, HPG, MSN, and VCB.
Regarding foreign capital flows, foreign investors have divested a record VND125 trillion ($4.75 billion) since the beginning of the year, the highest level compared to other emerging markets of similar size. However, as the VN-Index declined sharply, the selling pressure eased.
The selling pressure from foreign investors is partly due to profit-taking and partly due to significant concerns that prompted them to divest despite Vietnam's positive growth results and recent upgrades.
However, current institutional reforms are attracting foreign investor interest, and maintaining macroeconomic stability with sustainable growth at 7% over the next 5-10 years will still create a distinct appeal for Vietnam compared to other Southeast Asian countries.
