City to hold investor convention

Friday, May 9, 2008
A three-day financial seminar and exhibition will begin in HCM City on May 30 as part of co-operation between Singapore’s NextVIEW Group and the HCM City Stock Exchange.

"This year’s Asia Trader&Investor Convention (ATIC) is more evidence of our commitment to HOSE and Viet Nam to provide investor education, data services and international marketing expertise," Stephen Lai, CEO of NextVIEW Group, said at a press briefing on Wednesday.

The first two-day ATIC was held by the group in the city last May, in co-operation with HOSE, attracting some 4,000 investors.

He said the event was targeted at high-quality investor education, a one-stop financial marketplace and investor networking.

This year 50 seminars and forums will feature 40 international and local financial experts delivering talks in Vietnamese, English and Chinese. Topics covered will include Viet Nam and global outlooks, stock market trading methods, money management, properties, gold and commodities investment, co-listing opportunities for Vietnamese companies and overseas investment opportunities. HOSE and NextVIEW will invite around 100 international fund managers, brokers and financial investors to participate in the Viet Nam Investment Summit event during the opening session.
