Circular 18/2014/TT-BTP stipulates the reduction of the duration of information disclosure. In case of putting up bad debts for auction, the duration of information disclosure shall be determined as follows:
- If VAMC purchased bad debts from credit institutions at the market value, VAMC shall decide whether to reduce the duration of information disclosure;
- If VAMC purchased bad debts from credit institutions at book value with special bonds, VAMC shall negotiate an agreement with debt-selling credit institutions on reduction of the duration of information disclosure.
In case VAMC put up the collateral against bad debts for auction, it shall negotiate an agreement with the owner of such collateral on the reserve prices of auctioned assets on reduction of the duration of information disclosure; in case of putting up the land for auction, VAMC shall negotiate an agreement with the pledgor of land.
The duration of information disclosure provided above shall be at least four (04) working days if the assets are movable assets, or at least fifteen (15) days before the auction takes place if the assets are real estate.
