Edison issues update on VinaCapital Vietnam Opportunity Fund (VOF)

VinaCapital Vietnam Opportunity Fund's (VOF's) sterling net asset value (NAV) per share decreased by 8.8% over the year ending June 2023 in total return (TR) terms, outperforming the Vietnam VN Index and its direct peers in a tough environment. The Vietnamese economy recently experienced headwinds from a liquidity crunch in the real estate industry, which represents roughly a fifth of Vietnam's equity market capitalisation and a fourth of VOF's NAV, as well as from slowing exports. That said, the downside protections embedded in many of VOF's investments provide the fund with a certain cushion against these real estate sector challenges. VOF's shares trade at a 14% discount to NAV (broadly in line with the long-term average) and offer a 2.6% dividend yield.

VOF is an attractive play in Vietnam's long-term growth story, while at the same time offering downside protection during periods of short-term market headwinds through structuring investments on private terms (c 80% of VOF's investments have been initially made into private companies). In addition to a layer of safety, these arrangements often include terms that generate recurring income and therefore assisting VOF's dividend payments.
