VINFAST AUTO LTD will sell its Vietnam manufacturing unit for $506 million and shift $6.9 billion in debt off its books. The move transitions the Nasdaq-listed automaker to an asset-light model following a $3.9 billion loss in 2023. Investors are scrutinizing governance as the buyer is a real estate businessman linked to founder Pham Nhat Vuong.
