PVCFC's 2025 theme, "Solid Foundation - Great Aspiration - Faster, More Efficient," embodies its spirit of continuous innovation and reflects its ambition to expand regionally. In an increasingly competitive global landscape, the high ACGS ranking is strategically significant. It enhances PVCFC's credibility with domestic and international investors, especially ESG funds, and reinforces trust among shareholders, partners, and the market.
This achievement also lays the groundwork for future market expansion, cross-border cooperation, and M&A strategies.
The ASEAN Corporate Governance Awards 2025 is jointly organized by the Securities Commission Malaysia, the ASEAN Capital Markets Forum (ACMF), and the independent watchdog organization Minority Shareholders Watch Group (MSWG).
Established in 2011, the ACGS is a comprehensive assessment system based on five pillars: rights of shareholders, equitable treatment of shareholders, role of stakeholders, transparency and disclosure, and responsibilities of the board. In 2024, the ACGS surveyed over 560 listed companies across six ASEAN nations: Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Vietnam.
