FiinRatings' data on the bond market shows that the issuance value increased dramatically in June 2025, reaching VND105.5 trillion, up 52.4% compared to the previous month. Of which, private issuance in the month accounted for 100% and there was no public issuance.
In the first 6 months of the year, the cumulative issuance value reached VND248.6 trillion, up 71.2% over the same period last year. Of which, privately issued bonds accounted for 88.8% (up 72.4% over the same period) and publicly issued bonds accounted for 11.2% (up 62.3% over the same period).
FiinRatings data shows that the market recorded an additional VND4.5 trillion in problem bonds from businesses in June, bringing the total value to VND23 trillion in the first 6 months of the year. This figure has decreased by 31% compared to the same period last year. Of which, 45.8% of the value of problem bonds came from the Real Estate sector, 16.4% from the Manufacturing sector, 8.7% from the Construction sector and the remaining 28.6% from other sectors.
Notably, many businesses with problem corporate bonds in June have had weak credit health for many years and have had previous payment delays/deferrals, or are in the same ecosystem as organizations that have previously had problem bonds.
In the group of real estate issuers, enterprises have shown signs of business recovery and have taken many positive actions in handling violated/postponed bonds thanks to the benefits of legal regulations and the complete land price list. In addition, there are still some bond lots that have recorded a delay in principal/interest payment in the first 6 months of the year because enterprises have not yet recovered liquidity to pay bondholders.
In the final months of the year, FiinRatings expects that late payment and deferral activities will continue, but the value will be lower than the peak period of previous years.
Assessing the new legal regulations related to the bond market, this credit rating unit believes that the application of a debt-to-equity ratio of no more than 5 times will tighten the financial conditions of bond issuers but will have little significant impact on the supply of privately issued corporate bonds.

In some industries with high financial leverage such as real estate, construction, trade and services ( tourism , entertainment, aviation, etc.) and energy, the proportion of issuers in the market exceeding the prescribed threshold is only about 5-25% by industry, mainly issuers with small issuance components in the market.
"Therefore, we assess that the individual bond market will still maintain its attractiveness to industry groups with high and long-term capital needs, needing to mobilize through the corporate bond channel and reduce dependence on bank loans," FiinRatings assessed.
The new debt ratio regulation will also contribute to improving the quality of corporate bond products for the market by limiting project companies, newly established companies and those with high leverage from raising capital in the market. At the same time, with this new regulation, the public offering channel is expected to gradually recover in the second half of 2025.
In addition, Decision No. 21/2025/QD-TTg on the Green Classification List, which has just been issued, is also expected to pave the way for a new wave of sustainable investment, creating a boost for the green bond market.
