The State Bank of Viet Nam gave the wholly British-invested bank 12 months to complete the capital increase, which its management board had adopted in March.
Standard Chartered began operations in Viet Nam in August 2009, providing banking products and services for corporations, financial institutions and small and medium-sized enterprises and individuals.
It has also acted as the sole sovereign credit ratings advisor to the Vietnamese government since March 2012.
