Power Company joins hand with securities firm

Power Company No. 1 and Ha Thanh Securities signed a comprehensive strategic cooperation agreement on Aug. 30.

Under the agreement, the power company will contribute capital to Ha Thanh Securities, while Ha Thanh is expected to pour capital in power transmission, real estate and finance services projects invested by Power company No. 1.

Ha Thanh will become a partner in providing outline consultation for equitisation, share issuance, shareholder management and other services as the power company carries out its equitisation.

The power company will work with Ha Thanh to open transaction units and stock order agents at the power company’s several locations.

The General Director of Electricity of Viet Nam (EVN), Pham Le Thanh, said that the agreement aimed to fully utilise the two companies’ potential.

Cooperation enhancement between Ha Thanh Securities and Power Company No. 1 is regarded as the first step in the development of EVN’s multi-sectoral economic growth.
