On the morning of April 16, DSC Securities (code: DSC) held its 2026 Annual General Meeting to approve the 2026 business plan. The plan targets total revenue of 747 billion VND and pre-tax profit of 356 billion VND, representing growth of 7% and 3% respectively compared with 2025 results.
DSC said the 2026 profit target is built on expectations of macro recovery and aims to set a new record. The company plans to maximize margins from its margin-lending segment, supported by record loan balances. It will also flexibly restructure its proprietary trading portfolio to align with market cash flows.
Looking ahead, DSC expects Vietnam’s economy to continue positive growth, supported by macro stability, sustained foreign investment inflows, and government policies to promote capital-market development. At the same time, management noted that the global economy remains exposed to uncertainties, including geopolitical tensions, protectionism, and policy shifts among major economies, which could affect domestic trade, investment, and financial markets.
Regarding the Vietnamese stock market, DSC expects 2026 to bring further significant steps in market upgrading. The company cited FTSE Russell’s plan to upgrade Vietnam’s stock market from Frontier Market to Secondary Emerging Market, effective from September 2026, provided criteria continue to be met.
Management said the upgrade is expected to attract international capital, increase liquidity, and improve the market’s standing in the region.
DSC also outlined its customer strategy for 2026, stating it will continue to fully leverage the Thanh Cong Group ecosystem rather than pursuing market share at all costs. The company said deepening customer engagement through this network is expected to support sustainable revenue growth with less impact from short-term market fluctuations.
In 2025, DSC reported revenue of 695 billion VND, up 38% year-on-year and reaching 123% of its plan. Pre-tax profit reached 344 billion VND, up 55.9% year-on-year and achieving 132% of the plan.
