Pre-IPO internal deals: The "trump card" of the board of directors

Before the IPO, on June 9, TCBS issued 118 million shares privately to 25 individuals, mostly senior leaders in the company, and collected nearly 1,400 billion VND, equivalent to 11,585 VND/share.

Not only is it an internal deal that "catches the wave" before the G hour, the recent private placement of TCBS also revealed a strong feminist imprint in the leadership team. Other leaders such as General Director Nguyen Thi Thu Hien, along with Deputy General Directors including Bui Thi Thu Hang, Pham Dieu Linh, Tran Thi Thu Trang, Nguyen Tuan Cuong also participated in buying shares in this release. The shares issued privately will be restricted from transfer within 1 year.

Although the shares issued privately in this round will be "held" for 1 year (not transferable), the participation of senior female leaders still shows that they do not choose to "strike quickly and withdraw quickly", but are willing to go the long way with the business. This is a big plus in terms of commitment and sustainable thinking - something often seen in female leaders in the Vietnamese financial sector.
