  Vietnamese property tycoon Truong My Lan, chair of Van Thinh Phat (VTP), has been sentenced to death for a multibillion-dollar fraud case involving embezzlement, bribery, and banking violations.



Lan, 67, was accused of a $12.5bn fraud, equivalent to nearly 3% of Vietnam's 2022 GDP.



She allegedly took out $44bn in loans from Saigon Commercial Bank, with $27bn possibly unrecoverable.



The high-profile trial, ending earlier than planned, shook Vietnam, as VTP was a major developer. 



Vietnamese stocks plummeted $40bn in 2022 due to corporate arrests, impacting investor confidence amid economic growth.
