Why did securities investors react to Sacombank shares when hearing rumors related to FLC Chairman Trinh Van Quyet?
In the trading session on March 28, after rumors appeared around the Chairman of the Board of Directors of FLC Group Trinh Van Quyet, a series of stocks belonging to the FLC ecosystem competed to “fall to the floor” with the status of white inside. buying, the oversold and oversold volumes piled up, while the liquidity trickled down.
Besides the massive sell-off in stocks of the FLC family, one bank stock was also “involved”, which is Sacombank’s STB. STB witnessed a deep decline when losing 3.5% in the morning session, closing the session down to 5.3% and became the biggest loser in banking, far outpacing the industry’s overall decline.
To explain why investors have such a reaction to STB stock, it is possible to point out the following reasons.
First, it is easy to see on FLC’s financial statements that Sacombank is currently the bank that lends the most, with a total outstanding loan balance as of December 31, 2021 of VND 1,840 billion. 100% of FLC’s outstanding loans at Sacombank are medium-term and long-term loans and newly incurred in March and May 2021.
If compared with Sacombank’s customer loan balance as of December 31, 2021, which was VND 387,929.5 billion, FLC’s outstanding loans accounted for 0.4% of the Bank’s total outstanding loans. However, this is only the outstanding loan for FLC Group, not including the outstanding loan balance with related companies or individuals, Mr. Trinh Van Quyet’s family.

Summary from FLC’s consolidated financial statements for the fourth quarter of 2021
According to the information explained in the financial statements, the loan at Sacombank includes 2 loans with details as follows:
