This recognition marks a proud milestone for the company and underscores the company’s continuous efforts to uphold the highest standards of information disclosure in Vietnam’s stock market.

According to the IR Awards 2025, this marks the eighth consecutive year that Guotai Junan Securities (Vietnam) Corp.  (“GTJA Vietnam”, ticker symbol: IVS) is recognized for meeting the highest standards of information disclosure in the stock market.

In 2025, the IR Awards conducts a comprehensive survey of 691 listed companies, covering the assessment period from May 1, 2024, to April 30, 2025. The findings highlight that achieving full compliance with disclosure regulations and consistently maintaining a presence on the list of standard-compliant companies, is far from easy, even for large-cap or leading firms. This remains a demanding challenge, requiring a systematic approach, strong executive commitment, and a robust information governance infrastructure.

During the 2025 survey period, the financial sector led the overall market with a 78% compliance rate, as 45 out of 58 companies met the Information Disclosure Standards, making it the top-performing sector in this year’s assessment. Compared to 2024, the sector recorded a notable improvement of 9 percentage points (from 69% to 78%),  reflecting a clear and consistent effort by financial companies to strengthen transparency and ensure compliance with disclosure regulations.

Since its initial listing on the HNX on August 1, 2011 under the ticker symbol IVS, GTJA Vietnam has maintained a strong track record of transparency and proactive investor communications. This marks the eighth consecutive year the company is recognized for meeting the highest standards of information disclosure. The 2025 IR Awards recognition not only reflects GTJA Vietnam’s consistent efforts but also reaffirms its unwavering commitment to continuously advancing its disclosure and investor relations practices.
