Asia Commercial Joint Stock Bank (ACB, stock code: ACB) has recently been caught up in false rumors on social media. Mr. Tran Hung Huy - Chairman of ACB's Board of Directors - also shared the bank's announcement on his personal page, refuting the false rumors.

Mr. Huy joined ACB in 2002 and officially assumed the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors in 2012. He took on the task when the bank was facing many difficulties after the events of Mr. Nguyen Duc Kien (Bau Kien) and a number of former leaders were prosecuted.
