LONDON (AFX) - HSBC Holdings PLC said it has agreed a deal to pay 71.5 mln usd to double its stake in the Vietnam Technological and Commercial Joint-Stock Bank (Techcombank) to 20 pct.

However, HSBC said the deal can only go through once Vietnam raises the cap on foreign ownership.

HSBC said it acquired an initial 10 pct holding in Techcombank in December 2005, which at the time was the largest stake a foreign institution could own in a Vietnamese bank.
