Speaking at a symposium on enhancing stock market resilience amid the integration trends, organized by the State Securities Commission in Quang Nam on Friday, Minister of Finance Nguyen Van Thang highlighted the need for market growth not only in size but also in quality, with a focus on green finance and sustainable financial instruments.
He urged the Securities Commission to accelerate digital transformation, enhance market supervision using modern technology, and strengthen international integration to gradually close the gap between Vietnam’s stock market and those of developed countries.
At the event, Ms. Julia Leung, Chairwoman of the Asia-Pacific Regional Subcommittee Conference (APRC) and CEO of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), praised Vietnam’s growing role in the Asia-Pacific financial landscape. She noted that Vietnam is strengthening its global financial presence through deeper connections with international capital flows, driven by economic integration and global supply chains.
