• Foreign inflow made up USD2.6 billion (65%) in
the value of deals
2012 The total transaction value of published
M&A transactions were estimated at USD4,17
billion in which the first quarter activity was
strong at USD1.99 billion

2. Challenges
Cost of capital
Inflation
• Relative to other countries, Vietnam’s cost of
capital remains extremely high
• If inflation does not continue on its path or
easing, the risk of prolonged high levels of cost of
capital will remain. In fact, due to drastic
measures taken by the Vietnamese Government,
inflation was reduced significantly from 18.58% in
2011 to 6.81% in 2012 and is expected to be 9% in
2013 by Fitch rating estimate).
• VND denominated debt is greatly restricting
domestic M&A activity
Outcome
• Targeted businesses for acquisition will see their
value negatively impacted by increased discount
rates
• Almost all M&A activity will come from foreign investors, who’s cost of capital is much lower relative to the
Vietnamese market
• Foreigners will favor purchasing existing companies rather than spend time and money developing its own
business organically
• Only cash-rich domestic businesses will have the capability to execute successful M&A transactions
3. Opportunities
Private Equity
 Stable macroeconomic situation, inflation under control, monetary
tightening policy continued etc.
 Vietnam’s stock exchange is forecast by Bloomberg to be the world best
exchange in 2013
3. Opportunities
Private Equity
Private equity is an attractive area for M&A investment in Vietnam
•
Fragmented markets
•
•
Larger quantity of appropriate sized SMEs
•
•
A substantial increase in the quantity of SMEs which could handle a meaningful
investment of USD5-10 million
SMEs are increasingly aware of and understand private equity structures
•
•
300,000 small and medium-sized enterprises in Vietnam.
Minority protections can now be negotiated
More significant M&A transactions recently include:
•
Diageo acquired 45% stake of Halico
•
Unicharm bought 95% stake of Diana
•
C.P Pokpland acquired 70.8% of CP Vietnam
•
Fortis Healthcare acquired 65% stake of Hoan My Medical Corporation.
Infrastructure
Infrastructure is emerging as an alternative
asset class with stable and consistent returns
 Shortages occur in every infrastructure sector in Vietnam
 Port congestion is particularly acute
•
About USD4.5 billion to be invested in ports
in the next five years
 Traffic congestion is just as bad
•
Approximately 13 expressways are planned
for construction by 2015, with total cost of
around USD6.5 billion
 Government is encouraging investment in the power
sector,
 An expected USD14 billion in to flow into this area
over the next several years
Over the past decade infrastructure investments have
not kept pace with GDP growth of 7-8%
Vietnam needs to invest approximately USD140 billion
between now and 2020.
Government with limited capacity and decreasing
access to Official Development Assistance (ODA).
Attractive opportunities for private sector to
strategically invest in this asset class.
