Most of non-recurring items recorded during 2018 would lead to less room for
abnormal recording in 2019 and afterward. From now on, therefore, it would be
more difficult for ACB to achieve the infrequently high growth as the last 2
years.
Non-interest income is forecast to slowdown because the sources of growth in
the last 2 years, which mostly comprise of losses recovery, would be less
abundant since 2019.
Retail lending, which focuses on mortgage car loans, is expected to withhold its
position as the leading activities like in the last 2 years’ figures and follow the
general trend within banking industry. Beside, digital banking progress in
“Future bank” strategy will be kept highly invested and expanded.
Cost of funding pressure would be more prominent in 2019 due to many
reasons: 1) Global interest rate hike and trade conflicts; 2) Domestic bond yield
is forecast to stay in growing trend; 3) Drastic competition in customers deposit

TCB is a bank with medium asset size and credit market share among private
commercial joint stock bank, but its operating effectiveness has been
continuously improved, which helped the bank to be ranked at the top group in
2018. TCB achieved this success thanks to the strategic value chain of Vingroup -
Masan - Vietnam Airlines ecosystem combined with the economic growth
oriented by export, consumption and real estate investment.
We noted TCB has developed a coherent strategy to approach customers, which
can create high-quality products suitable for each customers segment. The bank
is currently the pioneer in some core business segments: Market share ranking
No.1 in mortgage loans; advisory and brokerage involved in corporate bonds;
bancassurance fee; ranking at the top in transaction banking growth. Effective

bank in terms of CASA, ranked 2nd in terms of average funding cost and among
the top group of high profitability/assets with the results in 2018 of 33.5%; 3.48%
and 1.83% respectively. This has been the biggest competitive advantage of MBB
in the competition for credit market share and other activities.
The growth in personal consumer loans focusing on mortgage loans and
consumer unsecured loans at MCredit are two main highlights in the trend of
shifting to retail credit. In addition, the boosting of Non-NII from life insurance
with MB Ageas and payment activities will help the bank diversify revenue
sources and minimize risks. These will be two important motivations for MBB's
activities in the coming years.
We expect a stronger transformation of MBB as it took place in 2018 under the

Overall demand is still healthy based on population growth, an increase in
urbanisation rate and a rise of middle income class. Demand for the affordable
and mid-range apartments in the West of Hanoi remains high, while in the
center, high-end condo and landed property segments are expected to grow
robustly.
VPI’s current portfolio consists of about 18 projects and some unpublished
projects with the total square up to 230 hectares. This land bank is sufficient for
the next five years of development. Most of VPI’s projects are located in high
demand areas of Hanoi with an ease to access transportation networks, public
infrastructure and business center. VPI has an advantage to execute the
projects due to low land costs by doing the Build-Transfer projects and getting
land in exchange for infrastructure.

Electric battery is a device that consists of one or more electrochemical cells with
external connections that are supplied to power devices such as flashlights,
smartphones and electric vehicles. When the battery is powered, its positive
terminal is cathode and its negative terminal is anode. When a battery is
connected to an external circuit, electrolytes are able to move as ions within,
allowing the chemical reactions to be completed at the separate terminals and so
deliver energy to the external circuit. The term "battery" specifically referred to a
device composed of multiple cells.
According to Automotive Battery Market Size Report 2017 (Grand View Reseach),
the worldwide automotive battery industry was valued at USD 48.7 billion in 2016,
