Vietcombank (VN000000VCB4) posted VND 29,222 billion in consolidated pretax profit in the first half of 2026, an increase of 33.00 percent from the same period a year earlier, Mekong ASEAN reported on October 15, 2026. The same report said the bank had accepted Deputy Chief Executive Nguyen Van Tuan's early retirement from November 1, 2026, while CafeF reported that BSC set a VND 77,800 target on September 15, 2026.

Three events shape the picture

On September 29, 2026, Vietcombank attended an investor forum in Hong Kong that brought together more than 2,000 investors and over 1,000 business leaders from more than 400 companies, according to Vietcombank. On October 1, 2026, the bank said small and midsize business loans had increased 10.40 percent in the first half, while foreign-invested customer loans had risen more than 16.00 percent, also according to Vietcombank. On October 15, 2026, the personnel decision became the latest dated development, with the executive committee set to comprise nine members, Mekong ASEAN reported.

What does the change mean?

The immediate investor question is whether the management transition alters the bank's operating trajectory. The first-half figures point to a business still expanding: second-quarter pretax profit reached VND 17,420 billion, up 58.00 percent year over year, while net interest income increased 35.00 percent and credit-provision costs fell 38.00 percent, according to Mekong ASEAN. Those figures give the VND 77,800 BSC target a fundamental reference, although the target itself is a forecast rather than a reported result.

Next date for management

November 1, 2026 is the next substantiated date in the story: Nguyen Van Tuan's early retirement is scheduled to take effect then, according to Mekong ASEAN.

Profit remains the key reference

For Vietcombank stock, the most concrete counterweight to the management change is the bank's first-half operating record. Pretax profit of VND 29,222 billion and second-quarter growth of 58.00 percent provide measurable context for the analyst target and the planned personnel transition.
