Today, FTSE Russell announced details of the process of upgrading Vietnam's stock market, including a list of 28 stocks that meet the criteria to be included in the FTSE Global All Cap basket.

Of these, four are classified as "large" stocks, including Hoa Phat, Vietcombank, Vingroup, and Vinhomes. Three are classified as "medium" stocks, including Masan, Sabeco, and Vinamilk. The final list will be announced by this organization in the semi-annual review in September 2026.

More than a month after the decision to upgrade Vietnam's stock market from frontier to secondary emerging, FTSE Russell has just provided more detailed information about the upgrade process.

According to FTSE Russell, the decision will take effect from September 2026. However, the organization will conduct a further assessment in March 2026 to determine whether Vietnam has made sufficient progress in improving foreign investors’ access through global brokerage firms.

This is not a mandatory condition, but FTSE Russell Index Management (IGB) says improving market access for this group of investors is essential to supporting the index's replication.

Vietnamese stocks will leave the FTSE Frontier Index and be included in the FTSE Global Equity Index Series (GEIS) after the September 2026 review. The process of including stocks in the GEIS is expected to be carried out in several phases.

According to FTSE Russell, Vietnam is estimated to account for 0.04% in the FTSE Global All Cap basket, 0.02% in the FTSE All-World basket, 0.34% in the FTSE Emerging All Cap basket and 0.22% in the FTSE Emerging Index basket.
