VIETNAM: SWEEPING REFORM TO SECURITIES MARKET

Lưu ý: “bài viết này chỉ phát hành tiếng Anh cho tạp chí nước ngoài Asian- Mena Counsel”

By Trang Nguyen  – Associate | Attorney at Law

In November 2019, the National Assembly passed the new Law on Securities No. 54/2019/QH14 (“New Law”), effective from 01 January 2021. The New Law will completely replace the current Law on Securities No. 70/2006/QH11 as amended by the Law No. 62/2010/QH12 (“Current Law”). The New Law is said to be a radical improvement to regulations on securities market in Vietnam, and is expected to overcome those shortcomings observed for the past 10 years.

One of the remarkable points of the New Law is the imposition of stricter qualifications to become a public company. In particular, in order to become a public company, the required minimum paid-up charter capital of a company will be VND30 billion, in which at least 10% voting shares must be held by at least 100 shareholders other than major shareholders. The Current Law requires the minimum paid-up charter capital of a public company to be VND10billion and held by 100 shareholders only. The current public company which fails to reach such conditions after the effective date of the New Law shall be reverted to be non-public.  Alternatively, a non-public company may also become a public company after its successful initial public offering (“IPO”).

With respect to public offering, the New Law set out separately conditions for IPO and follow-on public offer, rather than the same conditions for both under the Current Law. For IPO, the conditions on charter capital, profit and accumulated loss before IPO and minimum voting shares to be offered in an IPO are more stringent than those provided in the Current Law. In particular,

  • The company must have paid-up charter capital of at least VND30billion (VND10billion is required under Current Law);
  • There must be profit in two preceding years (one year is required under Current Law), and no accumulated losses till the year of IPO.
  • At least 15% of the company’s voting shares must be sold (or at least 10% with the company having charter capital of VND 1,000 billion or more) to at least 100 investors other than major shareholders; and
  • Major shareholders must commit to hold at least 20% of the company’s charter capital within at least one year from the completion date of the IPO.

The subscription price shall be deposited on an escrow account during IPO process and be released only upon the completion of IPO. Furthermore, the company’s shares are also demanded to be listed on the Stock Exchange after the IPO. For follow-on public offer, it is required below conditions:

  • The company must have paid-up charter capital of at least VND30billion;
  • There must be profit in preceding year, and no accumulated losses till the year of follow-on public offer;
  • The total par value of offered shares shall not exceed the total par value of outstanding shares, excepting the case that the unsold shares are guaranteed to be subscribed by an underwriter.

If a public offering is to raise capital for project, at least 70% of the total offered shares must be issued. The company must prepare a plan to make up the short fall of the capital intended to be raised from such public offering for the project’s implementation.

Regarding private placement, only strategic investors and professional securities investors are allowed to participate in private placement of a public company under the New Law. The lock-up period will be three years for strategic investors, or one year in case of professional securities investors, except for transfers among professional investors or so ruled by the court/arbitration or in case of inheritance. As compared with the Current Law, the scope of professional investors under the New Law covers further, among others, the company with charter capital over VNDN100 billion, the listed company, individual having securities practice certificate, individual having portfolio of listed shares valued at VND2billion, or individual having yearly taxable income of VND1billion or more.

The New Law also introduce certain new regulations on listing and registration for trading, securities depository, registration of securities, securities settlement and clearance, information disclosure, protection of client’s assets, securities investment funds, and sanctions.

New Labour Code taking effect on January 1, 2021

Lưu ý: “bài viết này chỉ phát hành tiếng Anh cho tạp chí nước ngoài Asian- Mena Counsel”

By Nguyen Thu Huyen – Partner, Attorney at law

The participation in the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) and the EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) poses numerous requirements on the reform of laws, including labour laws.

Specifically, the members of the CPTPP and EVFTA are requested to adopt and maintain the rights as set out in the 1998 International Labour Organisation (ILO) Declaration, however, Vietnam is yet to ratify the remaining two core conventions of the ILO, which are Convention No. 87 regarding freedom of association and protection of the right to organise, and Convention No. 105 regarding abolition of forced labour. On that basis, Vietnam’s National Assembly ratified the new Labour Code on November 20, 2019 to replace the Labour Code 2012 and pave the way for the full implementation of the 1998 ILO Declaration. The new Labour Code will officially take effect from January 1, 2021 with the following notable provisions.

Employee representative organizations

The new Labour Code provides regulations on the establishment of employee’s organisations which are not under the system of Vietnam trade unions. Together with trade unions, these organisations are recognised as representing labour collectives at the grassroots level and have the equal rights and obligations as trade unions. In another way, the new Labour Code now recognises the right of employees to set up their own representative organisations to promote and improve the representative efficiency and protection of the rights and interests of the employees in labour relations, to comply with the core Conventions of the ILO as the new provision shows Vietnam’s effort tend to ILO’s Convention No. 87 which is not ratified by Vietnam’s National Assembly and to facilitate the process of international integration.

Nevertheless, this new regulation may place trade unions at a disadvantage due to a decrease in the number of members, especially in the non-state sector, and the role of trade unions may be limited.

Retirement age

The retirement age was a controversial topic in the process of preparing the draft of the new Labour Code 2019 for the National Assembly to ratify. People in favour of retaining the current retirement age argued that the increase of the retirement age might lead to growth in unemployment. Eventually, the retirement age has been amended to increase gradually.

In particular, age of retirement of employees working in normal working conditions is increased from 60 to 62 for males in 2028 and from 55 to 60 for females in 2035. Starting from 2021, the retirement age of employees working in normal working conditions is at 60 years and three months of age for males and 55 years and four months of age for females, then the retirement age shall increase by three months per year for males and by four months per year for females.

This roadmap for increasing the retirement age is considered reasonable as the current retirement age is still low compared to many countries in the world such as Singapore, Japan, Germany, etc. Moreover, the current retirement age was set more than 60 years ago when the average life expectancy of Vietnamese was 45 while it has now grown to 76.6 years.

Overtime cap

One of the remarkable amendments in the new Labour Code is the adjustment in the overtime cap. It has risen to 40 hours per month as compared to 30 hours per month as stated in the Labour Code 2012.

This amendment is for the purpose of meeting business needs and increasing the competitiveness of Vietnamese employees in the context of Vietnam joining CPTPP and EVFTA. In addition, the Labour Code newly stipulates cases for employees to work overtime for no more than 300 hours per year to ensure long-term benefits for employees.

Other noteworthy regulations

Other than the above-mentioned provisions, some noteworthy regulations of the new Labour Code are as follows: (i) an additional one full paid leave day adjacent to National Day raises the number of public holidays to 11; (ii) employees are allowed to unilaterally terminate labour contracts without reasons by notifying in advance within the timeline specified by law; (iii) employers are allowed to unilaterally terminate labour contracts of employees who are absent from work without permission for a total of five consecutive working days or more without requiring the employers to dismiss the employees for termination of labour contracts; (iv) and instead of conducting dialogue at workplaces every three months, the new Labour Code adjusts this regulation to once a year.
