Arising
from the fact that EVNNPT's annual
actual investment demands are high, while the Official Development Assistance
(ODA) fund provided by the Government become limited, EVNNPT plans to carry out its credit ratings in order to confirm its strength
and prestige which is for being recognized by the world-wide countries and to
increase the transparency of the enterprise. This will help EVNNPT to mobilize the i⭕nternational loans
from various sources without guarantee by the Government.
World
Bank, through Global Infrastructure Fund (GIF) provides EVNNPT with a grant by funding the cost for consultancy and appointing
Mizuho Bank to carry out the preparation phase. Based on the actual fact on
credit ratings for Vietnam Electricity (EVN), in which Mizuho participated as a
consultant, Mizuho Bank continued to be appointed by WB to become consultant
for EVNNPT in preparing the records
in credit ratings for EVNNPT.
At the
workshop, Mizuho Bank introduced its capability and experiences in credit
ratings, especially the experiences in providing EVN with credit ratings
consultation. This is a favourable conditions for Mizuho to be consultant in
credit ratings preparation for EVNNPT.
