VIS Rating Second-Party Opinion Service – responsively meeting needs through principle-based standards

VIS Rating officially launches its Second-Party Opinion service in April 2025. With clear and transparent assessment standards, VIS Rating's Second-Party Opinion service can be applied to various green frameworks – from international standards (ICMA), regional standards (ASEAN) to the United Nations Sustainable Development Framework and Vietnam's relevant environmental laws and regulations. This enables issuers to effectively address existing challenges and meet market transparency requirements.

Our service are built on a transparent, high-standard process with 4 core pillars used in the assessment:

• Use of Proceeds: Ensuring compliance with current regulations and alignment with green principles and standards.

• Management of Proceeds: Focusing on the allocation and monitoring of funds, ensuring that funds are used for their intended purpose and effectively.
