A high-quality Annual Report, presented in English and aligned with international standards, plays an increasingly important role not only for each business’s shareholder relations but also for the overall stock market. With more reports of this quality, Vietnam’s stock market will gain stronger standing in the eyes of international investors.

The transparency of information provided by listed companies is crucial for enhancing their competitiveness in attracting foreign investment, not only for individual businesses but also for Vietnam’s stock market as a whole. When international investors seek information on Vietnamese businesses, they encounter significant barriers due to limited foundational information. Therefore, providing disclosures in English is an inevitable trend that cannot be overlooked.

It is essential for businesses to promptly establish formal policies and procedures for managing environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices within their operations. This includes designating specific personnel to lead and implement these efforts.

Placing a stronger focus on corporate governance reflects the Organizing Committee's commitment to evolving the Selection Program to encourage businesses to adopt international standards and practices. This will enhance their competitiveness and provide greater opportunities for accessing regional and international capital markets.
