Following the countries accession to the World Trade Organization, financial liberalisation has picked up considerable momentum. Compared to other studies on financial liberalisation, this study focuses on the impact of financial liberalization on Vietnam’s stock market. After collecting data, calculating and running models, in comparision with previous studies, it shows us that there are some points to be mentioned as following.
For the contribution to the literature, there is very few of previous researches show the empritical study about the effects of financial liberalization on the liquidity and efficiency of stock market. The number of that studies is especially smaller when we discuss about Vietnam’s stock market. In this research, we have answered that big question.
Our report have pointed out the positive effect of financial liberalization on Vietnam’s stock market by calculating and running the quantitative model. From our significant results, we propose some suggested policies in order to help managers to have the most effective way to make use of the opportunities coming from financial liberalization, and toward a stock market that have the most liquidity and efficiency in the liberalization condition.
For the limitation of study, data used is monthly dataset, so there is values missing because of the lack of available information. Beside that, the problem of collecting data from different sources with different definitions, different criterias, different methods of calculating, … will lead to some errors or differences in the result. Moreover, models did not mention some factors of macroeconomics, political measures, investment risk which is showed by theoreotical studies that they can impact stock market.
Because of limitation of time and knowledge, we have not reviewed so many previous studies to have strong thereotical framework for our research.
If our time is more flexible, we will develop this studies and overcome the limitation

    US financial markets play an important role in contributing to the health and efficiency of the economy, businesses, and individuals. (Spiegel, 2002) Because there is a strong relationship between the health of the economy and financial market development and economic growth, even a slight dip in the financial markets can radically effect how the economy, businesses, and individuals respond. (Ask Dr Econ, 2005) Financial markets “facilitate the raising of capital in the capital markets, the transfer of risk in the derivatives market, price discovery, global transactions with integration of financial markets, the transfer of liquidity in the money markets, and international trade in the current markets.” (Financial Markets, 2013) When the financial markets are doing well, “firm-level, industry-level, and cross-country studies all suggest that the level of financial development exerts a large, positive impact on economic growth.” (MIT, 2001)…

    THE VIETNAMESE STOCK MARKET By Roberta S. Karmel Thirty years ago, I never imagined I would be visiting Vietnam and be warmly welcomed as an American, witnessing a nation enjoying economic growth and increasing prosperity, despite some of the lingering ill effects of Agent Orange in the countryside. Yet, last month, as part of a delegation from the Financial Women’s Association, I had the good fortunate to travel to Vietnam and meet with government officials and others and learn about business developments and Vietnam’s booming stock market. i[i] It is noteworthy that the United States is Vietnam’s top trading partner, and its second biggest investor after Taiwan. Vietnam’s GDP is rising dramatically, its foreign direct investment is rapidly increasing, and its stock market is soaring. On November 7, 2006, Vietnam was officially recognized by the international community as the 150th WTO member. Vietnam is Asia’s second fastest growing economy after China, and it has been forecast that Vietnam will become the world’s 17th largest economy by 2025. Although the country has been a oneparty communist state since 1976, Vietnam has eased restrictions on private enterprise and is selling off many state owned enterprises (“SOEs”) to the public. These offerings are not referred to as “privatizations” for ideological reasons, but rather are called “equitizations.” In 1986, Vietnam launched the Doi Moi (or Renovation) intended to transition the country from a centralized economy to a socialist-oriented market economy. These reforms have borne fruit. In 2006, Vietnam’s stock market index surged 145% and in the first three months of 2007, the index rose another 60%. It should be understood that the Vietnamese stock…

    Implementation of the Washington Consensus through financial liberalization has affected economic growth of emerging capital markets. Financial liberalization is developed in the objective of improving economic growth by encouraging saving, investment and capital productivity. Before financial liberalization is introduced, many developing countries encounter financial repression, which is the process where government intervenes in the economy (Demetriades, 1999). In 1960s and 1970s, government intervention was needed to control pegged exchange rates under Bretton-Wood regime. Government…

    At the end of the 1980s and early 1990s, the economies of Southeast Asia developed rapidly. Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore and Korea experienced an average annual GDP growth of 12%, which was called “the Asian miracle”. Among them, Thailand experienced approximately 15% GDP growth, and Malaysia experienced almost 20% GDP growth. But this momentum of economic growth did not last long. This rapid development not only brought huge economic profits, but also exposed the weaknesses and problems which overheated their economic development. These problems did not get much attention and got worse. In this case, the financial crisis broke out in 1997. This crisis was first seen in the currency depreciation and stock market. Starting in Thailand, the Thai baht devalued swiftly and lost more than half of its value and the Thai stock market also dropped 75%. As a consequence, many banks and companies had to declare bankruptcy. Due to the economic globalization, following Thailand, almost all of the Asian countries were plunged into severe economic difficulties. The crisis forced most Asian currencies to depreciate precipitously in a short period, and their currencies’ exchange rate against the dollar dropped between 10% to 70%. The change in foreign exchange market also affected the Asian stock market, and caused stock prices to slump by more than 30%. Besides, combined with the severe inflation and withdrawals from foreign investors, the speed of the Asian overall economic growth slowed down. The speed of economic growth in Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and Philippine declined to 3% after 1997, and for Korea, there was a negative economic growth. In this crisis, Thailand is one of the most typical countries that gave up its fixed exchange rate regime and lost heavily. But there was also a country, Hong Kong, who stuck to its fixed exchange rate regime and succeeded in…
