Closed-Ended Vietnam Fund Structure and Guernsey Regulatory Framework

VOF is incorporated as a non-cellular company in the Bailiwick of Guernsey under The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008, with registered number 61765, and its registered office is located at Les Echelons Court, St Peter Port, Guernsey. The fund operates under the Protection of Investors (Bailiwick of Guernsey) Law, 2020, in compliance with the Registered Collective Investment Scheme Rules.
