Saigon Thuong Tin Commercial Joint Stock Bank (Sacombank-STB) has recently announced the document for its coming annual general meeting (AGM) (scheduled on May 26, 2012) whereby the bank plans to hike chartered capital from 10.74 trillion dong to more than 14.176 trillion dong by the end of 2012.
Accordingly, the lender will raise chartered capital via issuing shares to pay 2011 dividend at 14 percent (equalling to the issuance of over 150.3 million shares to increase chartered capital by additional over 1.053 trillion dong), issuing bonus shares for 2011 to the existing shareholders at the ratio of 15 percent (equalling to the issuance of nearly 161.1 million shares to increase chartered capital by additional nearly 1.611 trillion dong), offering shares to the key staff of the bank at the ratio of 3 percent (or an issuance of 32.2 million shares to scale up chartered capital by additional over 322.2 billion dong).
