Capital restructuring of SOEs\u2019 investments in joint-stock companies and limited liability companies<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Based on the capital management mechanisms of SOEs, capital restructuring is identified as one of the key components of state capital management in enterprises. This activity not only serves to adjust ownership structures but also functions as a tool for SOEs to implement strategic orientations, enhance capital utilization efficiency, and strengthen the accountability of state capital representatives. The Members\u2019 Council or the Chairperson of the company approves and promulgates capital restructuring plans as a basis for implementation.<\/p>\n<p>Accordingly, Article 30 of Decree No. 366\/2025\/ND-CP provides as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Conversion of enterprise form from a single-member limited liability company into a joint stock company shall comply with the Government\u2019s regulations on restructuring of state capital invested in enterprises;<\/li>\n<li>Conversion of enterprise form from a single-member limited liability company into a multi-member limited liability company shall comply with the regulations on converting enterprises wholly owned by the State into multi-member limited liability companies as prescribed in the Government\u2019s regulations on restructuring of state capital invested in enterprises;<\/li>\n<li>Consolidation, merger, division, separation, and dissolution of enterprises shall be carried out in accordance with enterprise law, securities law, and other relevant laws;<\/li>\n<li>Transfer of capital and assets invested by enterprises wholly owned by the State into joint-stock companies or limited liability companies to the agency representing the owner shall comply with the Government\u2019s regulations on restructuring of state capital invested in enterprises.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>From the above provisions, it can be seen that the management by <strong>SOEs of their subsidiaries and capital contributions in other enterprises<\/strong> is designed on the basis of an integrated approach between enterprise law and specialized legislation on the management and use of state capital. Depending on the type of enterprise and the level of capital ownership, SOEs exercise the rights of owners or of members\/shareholders through appropriate management, supervision, and capital restructuring mechanisms. This approach ensures both the preservation and development of state capital and respect for the legal independence and governance mechanisms of invested enterprises, thereby contributing to enhanced effectiveness of state capital management in practice. A comprehensive understanding of these management contents and forms serves as a basis for assessing the effectiveness of state capital management and provides a foundation for further refinement of the legal framework in subsequent stages.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>Advisory email:<\/strong> info@cdlaf.vn<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4><strong>Hotline:<\/strong> (+84) 909 668
