At the meeting, Ho Quoc Dung welcomed Staub on his working visit to Vietnam and congratulated the company on its achievements in asset management, strategic investment advisory, the establishment and operation of global investment funds, and advisory services for the development of international financial centres.

He said Vietnam-Switzerland relations continue to develop well, particularly after the two countries announced a “Joint Statement on upgrading their partnership” at the 55th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos in January 2025.

As of the end of April 2026, Switzerland ranked 20th among 154 countries and territories investing in Vietnam. The Deputy PM said both sides should further boost cooperation, thus enabling Switzerland to become one of Europe’s major investors in Vietnam, with contributions from FS Finance Suisse AG.

Roland Staub thanked the Deputy PM and representatives of ministries and agencies for the reception. He said the company, headquartered in Zurich, specialises in asset management, strategic investment advisory, the establishment and operation of global investment funds, and advisory services for the development of international financial centres.

At the meeting, Staub shared the company’s long-term development strategy in Vietnam, focusing on a specific segment of the global economy. He said the company plans to expand investment in tourism to better utilise the potential and advantages of localities, contributing to making Vietnam a destination not only for investment but also for high-quality, internationally standard tourism. In the near term, the company plans to implement projects in Gia Lai province, Vietnam’s central highlands.

The host welcomed the company’s plans in Gia Lai, saying its ideas and objectives are in line with Vietnam’s investment orientation. He added that the projects would support socio-economic development, and sustainable growth and make effective use of the locality’s tourism and service potential.

He affirmed that the Vietnamese Government always facilitates foreign investors, including FS Finance Suisse AG, to operate effectively and over the long term in Vietnam.
