Securities watchdogs are considering different proposals to merge the HCM City and Ha Noi stock exchanges, or establish a parent company which would hold both bourses, says Nguyen Son, head of the Market Development Department of the State Securities Commission.
The two stock exchanges could be combined to form a comprehensive technology platform, said Le Hai Tra, a member of the board of the HCM City Stock Exchange.
"Two technology systems exist to serve the same purposes," said Tra. "A merger will help save enormous costs."
The State Securities Commission was developing a new system which would make fundamental changes in the securities infrastructure and avoid waste. Deployment of the new system was complex and required ongoing consultation with foreign experts. But, Tra said, "if the merger is critical, this system can be ready."
A merger would help the Vietnamese stock market improve its competitiveness among regional stock markets.
"The restructuring of both bourses must be put in the context of a regional competitive scenario," Tra added. "No neighbouring countries have two seperate exchanges as in Viet Nam."
But some securities analysts have argued that the merger would create a monopoly and frustrate investors who want to maintain investments on two separate exchanges. They argue that the establishment of a holding company would help focus management functions on a single entity, while allowing each bourse to continue operating independently, avoiding major disruption or volatility on the market.
Ha Noi Stock Exchange Deputy Director Nguyen Thi Hong Loan backs the holding company approach.
"The market should be retained as is for the next four years to avoid disturbances," she said.
But Son said that the current model kept share, bond and derivatives markets separate, scaring investors away. Merger of securities exchanges for operational efficiency was now a common trend worldwide, he said.View more random threads:
