The total registered foreign direct investment (FDI) in Việt Nam reached nearly US$21 billion as of August 31, up 7 per cent over the same period last year.
Foreign investments spread across 16 out of 21 economic sectors of Việt Nam, mostly in the manufacturing and processing industry with a total registered capital of $2.54 billion, or 59.1 per cent of the FDI influx into the country in...
This was an encouraging figure compared to the same month of last year when foreign investment registered in Việt Nam saw a yearly decline of 20 per cent, the FIA said.
There were 38,379 valid foreign-invested projects in Việt Nam with a total registered capital of US$455.06 billion as of September 20, reported the Ministry of Planning and Investment’s Foreign Investment Agency (FIA).
The drastic solutions of the Government and the Prime Minister in the first months of the year have been effective in supporting and removing difficulties for businesses to disburse investment capital.
Việt Nam''s attractiveness remained in the eyes of international investors, despite a wave of strategic adjustments as well as a reduction in investment activities on a global scale, according to experts.
Director of the FIA Do Nhat Hoang said that the increase in the disbursement rate showed the efficiency of the Government’s efforts to support businesses in implementing their projects.
Over the past five months of this year, foreign investment registered in the country reached nearly US$10.86 billion, up 10.6 per cent month-on-month, according to the Ministry of Planning and Investment''s Foreign Investment Agency (FIA).
The growth of the number of new projects was much higher than that of investment capital, which demonstrated that small and medium-sized foreign investors continued to believe in the country''s investment environment, the FIA has said.
Despite a decline of 18 per cent in newly registered capital to $11.5 billion, foreign capital disbursement saw a positive increase of 15 per cent to reach $19.68 billion in the January - November period.
In the next one to two years, the two countries can fully realise the "Dual Goals", which aims at the the milestone of US$100 billion in bilateral trade turnover and total accumulated investment.
