Even in 15 years,stockcapitalization may reach 100% of GDP as other countries in the world.
Improving quality by international standards
Besides increasing the "quantity", Vietnam's stock market also needs to consider raising the "quality".

The listed companies should have responsibility, the investors need to know how to protect themselves and the authorities need more competence which can help foreign investors confidently pour their capital into Vietnam.
Ms. Le Thi Le Hang, CEO of SSI Asset Management Company (SSIAM) also said that foreign investors highly appreciate the investment potential of Vietnam.
