Ocean Bank, one of its subsidiaries, was acquired by the State Bank of Viet Nam earlier in May for zero dong, while the OGC lost VND971 billion ($45 million) in profit, which was generated by Ocean Bank last year.

Until 2014, the group's total assets for the previous year were valued at VND11.9 trillion ($553 million), and its pre-tax profit was VND517.6 billion ($24 million).
