Baker McKenzie Vietnam has advised the Mandated Lead Arrangers, Underwriters and Bookrunners, including Cathay United Bank, CTBC Bank, Landesbank Baden Württemberg, Mizuho Bank, and Taipei Fubon Commercial Bank, in connection with the US$488 million unsecured syndicated loan to Techcom Securities Joint Stock Company (TCBS), the largest syndicated facility ever recorded for a securities firm in Vietnam.
As detailed in TCBS’ announcement, the transaction attracted participation from 26 lenders across Asia, Europe, and the Middle East, reflecting one of the most diverse lender bases seen in comparable Vietnamese securities transactions. The proceeds are expected to enhance TCBS’s margin lending capacity and support its investment and market‑making activities, strengthening its ability to navigate evolving market conditions.
