Under the Law No 68/2025/QH15 on the Management and Investment of State Capital in Enterprises, State-owned enterprises (SOEs) in which the State holds over 50% of the charter capital are required to review and amend their corporate charters and internal regulations to comply with the new provisions.

Addressing the Conference of Representatives of the State Capital Investment Corporation (SCIC)’s capital at enterprises on October 21, SCIC Deputy General Director Le Thanh Tuan said the total capital owned by the SCIC currently accounts for nearly 2 per cent of total State capital in enterprises.

According to a report presented by the Ministry of Finance to the National Assembly, one reason the equitization and divestment of State capital has stalled in recent times is the lack of incentive when the State-owned enterprise (SOE) is posting strong growth and high profits. This leads to many SOEs remaining in industries where the State does not need to maintain ownership.

Solutions suggested for overcoming the issues clouding the process.

This year, it is expected that divestments by six large firms, including FPT Corporation and the Hanoi Beer - Alcohol - Beverage Corporation (Habeco), will bring in VND20 trillion ($883.1 million).
