Sacombank has another leader resigning.

Sacombank's Board of Directors has just approved the resignation of Mr. Dang Hong Anh - Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors. Mr. Dang Hong Anh resigned from December 11 for personal reasons.

The announcement of the Board of Directors of Saigon Thuong Tin Commercial Joint Stock Bank (Sacombank) just released on the afternoon of December 12 also said that the Board of Directors of Sacombank had met and unanimously approved the wish of Mr. Dang Hong Anh and will submit it to the Sacombank General Meeting of Shareholders for consideration at the nearest meeting.

According to Sacombank representative, Mr. Dang Hong Anh wants to resign for personal reasons so it does not affect the bank's general operations.

Previously, on November 1, Mr. Dang Hong Anh and his father, Dang Van Thanh, were summoned by the investigation agency of the Ministry of Public Security. Then, on November 2, the resolution of the Board of Directors of Sacombank decided that Mr. Dang Van Thanh would cease to hold the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors of Sacombank.

Mr. Dang Hong Anh

Mr. Dang Hong Anh (born in 1980) is the eldest son of Mr. Dang Van Thanh - the person who contributed to bringing Sacombank from a mere VND3 billion at its founding to the VND10,000 billion it is today. Previously, in early November, Mr. Dang Van Thanh also resigned as Chairman of Sacombank.

Dang Hong Anh is also Chairman of the Board of Directors of Sacomreal Real Estate Company. He currently holds 32.3 million shares of Sacombank and 14.2 million shares of Sacomreal.

The dream career of Mr. Dang Van Thanh's family

In 2012, Sacombank underwent a major takeover by a group of "big" shareholders. Rumors of Sacombank's takeover began to spread in July 2011 and this information caused the bank's shares to plummet. By February 2012, Mr. Dang Van Thanh and his son were asked by a group of shareholders holding more than 51% of the bank's charter capital to change Sacombank's board of directors. However, to date, the shares of Mr. Dang Van Thanh and his son - Dang Hong Anh are still the largest among the shareholders - with an ownership ratio of 7.7%.
