The ASEAN+3 Macroeconomic Research Office (AMRO) revised Vietnam’s economic growth forecast upward to 6.3% for 2024 in its latest update released on July 16.

VOV.VN - The Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI) has revised two scenarios for Vietnamese economic growth this year after recording a high growth rate of 6.42% during the first half of the year, with high hopes of securing a 7% rate by the end of the year.

Credit growth has accelerating since the beginning of June, signaling that the 15% growth target is achievable, if the rate is maintained in the remaining months of this year.

Vietnam's economy is experiencing a surge, fueled by strong export and industrial production, according to a series of reports from international organisations.

VOV.VN - The Vietnamese economy maintained its upward trajectory in the first half of the year, with its growth expanding by 6.93% in the second quarter of the year, helping to raise its first-half growth to 6.42%, reported the General Statistics Office (GSO).

VOV.VN - Vietnam’s GDP growth in the second quarter of the year is forecast to moderate to still-strong 5.3% from 5.7% in the first quarter, according to the Standard Chartered Bank’s recent macro-economic updates about Vietnam.

VOV.VN - Despite a bright economic outlook for this year, Vietnamese GDP growth is unlikely to achieve the target of 6.5% set by the National Assembly (NA) due to internal and external impacts, said Nguyen Quoc Viet, deputy director of the Vietnam Institute for Economics and Policy Research (VEPR).

Singapore-based United Overseas Bank (UOB) has projected the economic growth rate of Vietnam at 6% for the second quarter of this year and for the full year on increasing chip-making demand, the recovery of Chinese and regional economies, as well as ongoing supply chain shifts.

VOV.VN - The country's economic growth this year is projected to reach below 6%, according to Dr. Nguyen Quoc Viet, vice director of the Vietnam Institute for Economic and Policy Research (VEPR).
