M&A specialists at Tilleke & Gibbins in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi have contributed the Vietnam chapter to Private M&A 2025, a newly released guide from Lexology Panoramic. The publication provides practical insights into private mergers and acquisitions frameworks in jurisdictions worldwide.

The Vietnam chapter addresses key aspects of private M&A transactions, including:

• Structure and process, legal regulation, and required consents
• Advisers, negotiation, and documentation
• Due diligence and disclosure obligations
• Pricing, consideration, and financing
• Conditions, preclosing covenants, and termination rights
• Representations, warranties, indemnities, and postclosing covenants
• Taxation of transfers
• Employees, pensions, and benefits
• Recent legal, regulatory, and market practice developments

The chapter highlights how Vietnam’s legal framework governs private acquisitions and disposals, outlines typical transaction processes and structures, and provides guidance on common regulatory and practical considerations. It also notes recent trends, including increased scrutiny of merger control filings by the Vietnam Competition Commission and regulatory changes affecting M&A approvals.
