HA NOI (Biz Hub) — Mobile World Investment Corporation general director, Nguyen Duc Tai, skyrocketed onto the list of the top 10 richest people on Viet Nam's stockmarket after the company's market capitalisation rose to almost VND11 trillion (US$521.3 million) and its shares hit VND175,000 ($8.30) a share.

Tai currently holds more than 10.4 million MWG shares, or 16.4 per cent of the company's total capital, worth VND1.8 trillion ($85.3 million). With this asset, Tai ranks eighth on the list of the top 10 richest people on the stockmarket.

Apart from Tai, MGW's impressive growth made four other executives – Tran Le Quan, Dinh Anh Huan, Tran Huy Thanh Tung and Dieu Chinh Hai Trieu – advance among the top 50 wealthiest people on the Vietnamese stockmarket.

Quan, a member of the management board, has VND1.3 trillion ($61.6 million), sitting on number 12 on the list.

Trieu and Huan own assets worth more than VND400 billion ($19 million).

Currently, MWG's internal shareholders and related people are holding nearly half of MWG's capital. Other major shareholders are CDH Electric Bee (15.8 per cent) and Mekong Capital (14.3 per cent).
