Vietnam raises $116 million in government bond auction

Vietnam's State Treasury raised about 3 trillion dong ($116 million) in its latest government bond auction, up from the previous week. Uptake stood at 23 percent of bonds on offer, compared with 20 percent the prior week. The treasury sold portions of 5-year, 10-year, 15-year, and 30-year bonds, but failed to sell any 3-year bonds, against a full-year target of 500 trillion dong.
