Evaluation of Systematic Risk of Viet Nam Construction Material Industry during the Pre-Low Inflation Period 2012-2014 | Chapter 3 | Current Strategies in Economics and Management Vol. 3

Construction material industry is one of the most rapidly growing sectors, with many achievements both in Vietnam and in Asia. In recent years, its rapid growth has produced revenues from business activities. One of the key objectives of this paper is to assess market risk volatility in construction material businesses in the 2012-2014 pre-low inflation period. Our first findings are to be found that beta values in general (< 1) for most of our construction material companies are appropriate when we apply quantitative, statistical and analytical methods to evaluate the asset beta and beta CAPM of 20 listed Viet Nam construction material companies. However, we analyze the market risk volatility, determined by asset and equity beta var,  during the post-low inflation period in this sector and compare results in two circumstances: risk fluctuation in pre-low inflation time 2012-14 is lower than that in post-low inflation period 2015-2017. Finally, if we observe in 2 periods, Beta CAPM or equity beta mean goes up in case post-low inflation period.  At last, policies in risk management and governance are suggested in the conclusion based on the research results and findings. In the post-low inflation environment, we alert that Beta fluctuations could be little higher.

Asset and Equity Beta of Viet Nam Public Utilities- Electric Power and Water Industries after the Low Inflation Period | Chapter 13 | Current Strategies in Economics and Management Vol. 2

The Vietnam economy has obtained lots of achievements after the financial crisis 2007-2011, until it reached a low inflation rate of 0.6% in 2015. Vietnam Water & Electric power Company group are growing and contributing much to the economic development and has been affected by inflation. High and increasing inflation might reduce values of Water& Electric power Company group contracts. This paper measures the volatility of market risk in Viet Nam Water& Electric power Company group after this period (2015-2017) and recommends policies for sutainable water treatment and development. The main reason is the necessary role of the of Water& Electric power Company group system in Vietnam in the economic development and growth in recent years always go with risk potential and risk control policies.  Hence, this research paper aims to figure out how much increase or decrease in the market risk of Vietnam Water& Electric power Company group firms during the post-low inflation environment 20152017. First, by using quantitative combined with comparative data analysis method, we find out the risk level measured by equity beta mean in the water and electric power industry is acceptable, as it is lower than (<) 1. Then, one of its major findings is the comparison between risk level of stock investment industry compared to those of Water Company group in the post-low inflation time 2015-2017. In fact, the research findings show us market risk level of water and electric power group during the post-low inflation time is lower (equity beta mean = 0.412). Then, another major finding is the comparison between risk level of electric power industry in the post-low inflation time 2015-2017 compared to those in the crisis 2007-09. In fact, the research findings show us market risk level of electric power group during the post-low inflation time is higher. Finally, this paper provides some ideas that could provide companies and government more evidence in establishing their policies in governance. This is the complex task but the research results shows us warning that the market risk need to be controlled better during the post-low inflation period 20152017. And our conclusion part will recommends some policies and plans to deal with it. Basically, we need to have a better integration management of water cross the country, identify challenges in water treatment and resolve them.

A Three Variable Model on the Risk Level of Viet Nam Hardware Industry during and after the Global Crisis | Chapter 12 | Current Strategies in Economics and Management Vol. 2

Over recent years, hardware industry in Viet Nam has reached a lot of achievements. Under the volatility of stock price, and changes in macro factors such as inflation and interest rates, the wellestablished hardware market in Viet Nam has many efforts to recover and grow from the crisis 2008. This study analyzes the impacts of 3 factors: Competitor size, tax rate policy and leverage on market risk for the listed firms in the hardware industry as it becomes necessary.  First, by using quantitative and analytical methods to estimate asset and equity beta of total 22 listed companies in Viet Nam hardware industry with a proper traditional model, we found out that the beta values, in general, for many companies are acceptable. Second, under 3 different scenarios of changing tax rates (20%, 25% and 28%), we recognized that there is the largest dispersion in equity beta value (0,2), if leverage up to 30% and doubling size competitors. Third, by changing tax rates in 3 scenarios (25%, 20% and 28%), this study identified that the risk dispersion level in this sample study could be minimized in case the competitor size doubling, tax rate up to 28% and financial leverage down to 20% (measured by asset beta var of 0,081). Finally, this paper provides some outcomes that could provide companies and government more evidence in establishing their policies in governance.

An Expansion Analysis of the Volatility of Market Risk in Groups of Viet Nam Listed Computer and Electrical Company Groups during the Financial Crisis 2007-2009 | Chapter 8 | Current Strategies in Economics and Management Vol. 1

The Viet Nam economy and especially, the stock exchange has been influenced by the global crisis during the period 2007-2011. For specific industries, such as consumer good and wholesale/retail industries, the risk re-analysis and estimation for the listed firms in these industries become necessary.  First, by using quantitative and analytical methods to estimate asset and equity beta of three (3) groups of sub-trading listed companies in Viet Nam material, consumer good, wholesale and retail industries with a proper traditional model, we found out that the beta values, in general, for most companies are acceptable, excluding a few cases. There are 72% of listed firms with lower risk, among total 229 firms, whose beta values lower than (<) 1.  Second, through comparison of beta values among three (3) above industries, we recognized there are still 26% of total listed firms in the above group companies with beta values higher than (>) 1 and have stock returns fluctuating more than the market index. Finally, this paper generates some outcomes that could provides both internal and external investors, financial institutions, companies and government more evidence in establishing their policies in investments and in governance.
