Vietnam Raises $323.8 Million in Government Bond Auction
**VIETNAM G-BOND AUCTION: TREASURY RAISES VND 8.44 TRILLION**
**Jan 28, 2026** — The State Treasury of Vietnam successfully raised **VND 8.44 trillion** ($323.8 million) in its latest government bond auction, facing a cooling market compared to the previous week's robust VND 12 trillion uptake.
**Market Performance & Yields**
The auction highlighted a clear preference for medium-term maturities, while demand for shorter and longer tenors evaporated.
* **10-Year Bonds:** Dominated the session, accounting for the bulk of capital raised with a winning coupon of **4.04%**.
* **15-Year Bonds:** Saw limited interest, with only 20% of the offering absorbed at a **4.12%** yield.
* **5-Year & 30-Year:** Failed to attract buyers, recording zero sales volume.
**Liquidity & Trends**
Overall absorption dropped to **58%**, down from over 60% in the preceding auction. This pullback reflects a cautious sentiment in the fixed-income market as investors consolidate positions ahead of the Lunar New Year holiday season.
**YTD Progress & Fiscal Context**
This session brings total government bond sales for 2026 to **VND 24.4 trillion**. The State Treasury continues to lean on these issuances as the primary vehicle for funding Vietnam's critical public investment projects and sustaining economic growth targets for the year.
