Premia MSCI Vietnam ETF tracks the MSCI Vietnam Index, which aims to capture leading large and mid-cap Vietnam-based companies that represent 85% of market capitalization in Vietnam.  

The index is dominated by the real estate (45.5%) and consumer staples (30.2%) sectors and comprises 16 constituents, most notably Vingroup (22.0%), Vinamilk (17.8%), and Vinhomes (12.7%).

Comparing to other ETFs currently operating in Vietnam’s stock market, Premia MSCI Vietnam ETF remains modest with fund size of US$21 million. 

"We are delighted to launch the world's first MSCI Vietnam ETF, facilitating investors with efficient market access and liquidity management tools as they position for opportunities amid market uncertainties, global supply chain reconfiguration, and new trade pacts including CPTPP and FTA with Vietnam," said Rebecca Chua, managing partner of Premia Partners. 

Currently, there are a number of investment funds in Vietnam tracking the MSCI indexes, such as MSCI Frontier Markets Index and MSCI Frontier Markets 100 Index. Notable names include iShares MSCI Frontier 100 ETF with over US$500 million in funding, and Schroder ISF Frontier Markets Equity with US$1 billion, among others.
