Sovico and MUFG set out plans to connect Japanese capital with Vietnam projects
The cooperation framework covers capital markets and project financing, alongside investor links across Sovico’s businesses.
A memorandum exchanged in Japan by Sovico Group and Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (MUFG) aims to draw international resources into Vietnam’s development sectors and build investment links with Japanese businesses.
The planned cooperation encompasses corporate financing, access to international capital markets and funding for projects. Japanese investors would also be connected with Sovico’s businesses, which include banking, finance, aviation, infrastructure, real estate and digital transformation.
Investment promotion and professional exchanges are also planned, with a focus on sustainable finance, financial innovation and infrastructure. Nozaki Takao, MUFG’s Regional Head of Vietnam, said the group wanted to use its Japanese business and financial networks to bring capital and expertise to the partnership and support Sovico’s sustainable growth goals.
The memorandum was exchanged at the Vietnam–Japan Public-Private Forum on Economic, Science and Technology Cooperation during the official Japan visit of To Lam, General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee and President. Lam and senior leaders from both countries witnessed the event.
