We highly appreciate TAIFEX’ goodwill and support to train our staff and provide consultancy to Vietnam in the establishment of futures market. The training session by TAIFEX to five HNX staffs here at TAIFEX premises in Taipei right after this signing ceremony is indeed a vivid proof of the strong commitment of our two exchanges to a long lasting and effective collaboration.
