study “A key element in modern capital markets is the interplay between firms that increasingly raise capital internationally, and institutional investors that manage growing pools of assets”.1 Capital is an essential input for any business The bigger the business expansion is, the more importance of additional capital Funding plan always plays an utmost crucial role throughout the companies‟ growth path Long time ago, companies mostly relied on state or individual/internal capital when they need a fund raise In modern economy, they have a new and more efficient capital pipeline channel to facilitate this demand which is the stock market This special market has their own main players, including Sell-side and Buy-side Sell-side basically consists of investment banks and listed companies, who create stocks and bonds, and sell these securities to investors Meanwhile, Buy-side consists of individual investors and institutional investors who are asset managers, pension funds, insurance firms, hedge funds, etc Institutional investors are very crucial forces and receive warm welcome from almost every stock exchange in the world On emerging markets like Vietnam, institutional investors, especially foreign ones, are being needed due to their positive contribution to the development of local financial markets In Vietnam, stock market was born when the country‟s first official trading floor – Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange Center (HOSE, latter renamed HSX) – opened on July 20th, 2000, followed by the Hanoi Securities Trading Center (HASTC, latter renamed HNX) half a decade later Since inception, the scale of both trading Miguel A Ferreira,The Colors of Investors‟ Money: Which Firms Attract Institutional Investors From Around the World, 2006 floorshave been growing strongly and gradually becoming a significant capital channel in medium and long term, positively contributing to the country‟s industrialization and modernization During the period of 2000-2005, market capitalization stayed only around 1% of GDP In 2006, it had a strong leap up to account for 22.7% of GDP and continues to grow at over 43%of GDP in 2007 By 30th August 2012, the total market capitalization of HSX and HNX was US $35.4billion, equivalent to approximately 32% of 2011‟s nominalGDP (US $110 billion).According to the strategies to develop the local securities market during 2010-2020of State Securities Commission (SSC),Vietnam targets to raise its stock market capitalization to 65%-70% of its GDP in 2015 and to 90%-100% of the GDP in 2020 The number of companies listed on the Vietnam stockmarket has been increasing rapidly, even in the worst time It went from the first companies in July2000 to more than 600 ones at the end of 2010 Shares issuance activity to raise capital via the stock market started to take off since 2006 when 44 listed companies successfully made new issuance of more than 203 million shares In 2007, it reached the extremely high level where 192 companies and four banks made 200 issuances with total capital up to nearly VND 40,000 billion The number of investors participating in the stock market increasedstrongly, too, regarding all individual investors and domestic and foreign institutions In 2000, there are approximately 3,000 trading accounts Steadily, this number increased to 12,000.Of which, there are 1,300 institutional accounts The number of fund management companies grew from a few in the 1990s to 47 in 2010, accordingly Foreign investors quickly showed their major role, especially in creating market liquidity That is to say, together with foreign direct investment (FDI), foreign indirect investment (FII) has become an important source of foreign funds to support Vietnam‟s growing economy Likewise, the successful economic reform also made Vietnam an attractive frontier - emerging market for many foreign institutional investors During the past decade, business cycles has been going on from the stability, recessions and boomsand profound inflation.“Many new industries that have revolutionized society, such as technology, biotechnology, and communications, etc And through it all, the need for capital has relentlessly grown, and the role of investment attraction has grown, which has led to competition for capital” And one of the best ways to win the competition for capital is lying in the companies‟ leadership and corporate governance practices Statement of the problem A century ago, companies in the world and in Vietnam almost did not know or care who their major shareholders were Today, upon realizing the significance of institutional investors, companies started to change attitude toward attracting and keeping institutional investment In response to shareholder desires, companies are paying more attention to their leadership and corporate governance A common thought of almost Vietnamese listed companies half decade ago was that: “A company’s record will speak for itself”, say, if companies work well enough, institutional investors certainly be aware of and come for further discussions However, how to attain good and better performance with better business results, becoming a good and better company in order to be discovered and welcomed by investment community are an open question The answer largely comes from the good leadership and corporate governance practices Various former study did research on leadership, corporate governance alone or in relation with companies performance, but very few studies have examined the dynamic interactions between the good leadership and corporate The Nasdaq Stock Market, The Strategy and Practice of Investor Relations, p.112 governance practices and the attraction of institutional investors Therefore, the role of leadership and corporate governance and their relationship to corporate performance in successful investment is in need of further research Purpose of the study From own experience in working with both Buy-side and Sell-side during career, the author has felt the need for specific pointers on implementing good leadership and corporate governance practices in Vietnamese listed companies This study therefore investigates the impact of good leadership and corporate governance practices on investor decision-making and the extent to which they are leading indicators of future financial performance It also aims to serve as a guide for those who wish to strengthen leadership and corporate governance practices in their organizations This aim drives into two objectives The first objective is to show why good leadership and corporate governance practices are important in terms of a means to achieve better corporate performance to help Vietnamese companies attract institutional investment The second objective is to provide guidance on how to perform this function efficiently and effectively to add value to companies, including but not limited to two parts: The first is Quality of leadership and the second is the Quality of corporate governance Quality of leadership was represented in four main factors: 1) Quality of companies‟ vision; 2) Quality of company‟s strategy; 3) Execution of company‟s strategy and 4) Quality of leaders Quality of corporate governance is built from aspects: 1) Constituting an independent and objective board; 2) Compensation/Remuneration issue; 3) Improve transparency; 4) Improve communication quality and 5) Improve risk management 14 Adam Harmes (2001), Institutional Investors and Polanyi's Double Movement:

Banks and bank trust departments: manage personal trust funds and contracted pension assets - Insurance companies: invest their own property-casualty and life insurance funds - Investment companies (mutual fund families): managing money on behalf of fund holders - Investment advisors: are money management firms that exercise investment discretion on behalf of clients A significant portion of pension fund assets are managed by investment advisors In the world, Barclay's Bank PLC, Morgan Stanley Dean Witter and Goldman Sachs & Company are three of the largest - Endowments, public and corporate pension funds and philanthropic foundations: comprises university and private endowments, philanthropic foundations, funds that are managed in-house by private and public pension funds, and law firms acting as trustees  Based on trading taste, there are three categories of institutional investors: - “Transient” institutions: exhibit high portfolio turnover and own small stakes in portfolio companies They are attracted to companies with investor relations 58 Murat Binay,“Performance Attribution of US Institutional Investors”, 2005 122 activities geared toward forward-looking information and “news events,” like management forecasts, that constitute trading opportunities for such investors - “Dedicated” institutions: provide stable ownership and take large positions in individual firms They appear to be insensitive to the quality of disclosure - “Quasi-indexers”: also trade infrequently but own small stakes (similar to an index strategy) They are attracted to companies with “high-quality” annual and quarterly report disclosure 123 ... first is Quality of leadership and the second is the Quality of corporate governance Quality of leadership was represented in four main factors: 1) Quality of companies‟ vision; 2) Quality of company‟s...
