Immediately after FTSE Russell Ratings announced the upgrade of the stock market from frontier to secondary emerging 8-10, at the headquarters of the State Securities Commission (SSC), Ms. Vu Thi Chan Phuong, Chairwoman of the SSC, had a meeting and worked with Mr. Bob McCooey, Vice President and Director of International Listing Department, Nasdaq (USA), on the occasion of his working trip to Vietnam.

At the meeting, the Chairman of the State Securities Commission said that Vietnam has been actively perfecting the legal framework and carrying out many reforms in mechanisms to develop the stock market. Recently, the State Securities Commission issued a Regulation on coordination in reviewing registration dossiers for initial public offerings (IPOs) at the same time as registration dossiers for listing. This is an important step in reforming administrative procedures, contributing to improving the efficiency of capital mobilization and protecting the interests of investors in the stock market.

At the same time, the SSC also encourages qualified Vietnamese enterprises to participate in listing on international markets, especially on Nasdaq. In addition, the SSC is also interested in issuing depository receipts (DR) in the US. Previously, in July 2025, the SSC coordinated with Nasdaq and partners in the ASEAN region to successfully organize a conference on IPO and issuance of depository receipts (DR).

Therefore, the State Securities Commission hopes that Nasdaq will continue to closely coordinate, create favorable conditions for Vietnamese enterprises, support information dissemination and propaganda so that enterprises can access and take advantage of opportunities to issue depository certificates in the international market.

In response, Mr. Bob McCooey congratulated the Vietnamese stock market on being officially upgraded as announced by FTSE Russell and affirmed that Nasdaq is ready to cooperate and support the State Securities Commission in areas of interest to Vietnam; at the same time, he expected that Vietnamese enterprises will be successful in expanding their operations to international markets, contributing to promoting the image of Vietnam in the international market.

Mr. Bob McCooey emphasized that Vietnam is a dynamically growing economy with great potential to attract US and global investors. Nasdaq wishes to become a bridge, accompanying the State Securities Commission and Vietnamese enterprises, not only in listing and capital mobilization activities, but also in the field of technology and transaction monitoring, based on the experience of cooperation with more than 130 exchanges worldwide.

Previously, last night local time, at Nasdaq's headquarters in Times Square (New York, USA), a giant LED screen "threw flowers" to congratulate the Vietnamese stock market on being upgraded.
