Singapore raises stake in Vietnam's consumer group Masan: report
Singapore's government has acquired more than 27.6 million shares in Vietnam's consumer giant Masan Group Corporation to boost its stake to 5.08% from the original 1.38%.
Last week local media reported that Singaporean sovereign fund GIC was one of the foreign investors buying 45 million shares of Masan from Singaporean private fund Orchid Capital Investments.
The shares, reportedly sold for around VND1.3 trillion (US$57.65 million), were equivalent to nearly a stake of 6%.
