According to the Asia House Annual Outlook 2024, Vietnam's economy is likely to continue to outperform its regional neighbours through 2024, with its manufacturing and export industries drawing significant inward investment, given the openness of the economy and the strength of its fundamentals.

The joyful atmosphere on those days is a result of Vietnam’s successful navigation through the challenging year of 2023, marked with positive developments.

Industrial parks and economic zones in the northern port city of Hai Phong strive to attract US$2-2.5 billion in foreign direct investment (FDI) in 2024, according to the city’s Economic Zone Management Board.

Industrial parks (IPs), export processing zones (EPZs) and economic zones (EZs) in the Red River Delta granted investment registration certificates to 487 projects in 2023, including 390 foreign direct investment (FDI) and 97 domestic direct investment (DDI) projects, up 63.35% compared to last year’s figure.

VOV.VN - There are sanguine economic prospects ahead for Vietnam this year as foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows are anticipated to be further poured into the country over the course of 2024, especially in the semiconductor chip and high technology field, according to industry insiders.

Experts believed that the world and domestic economic situation in 2024 will continue to have difficulties and challenges. In that context, Vietnamese enterprises need to proactively implement solutions to promote production and business.

Investors from 20 countries and territories across the globe have registered more than US$11.57 billion in 170 foreign direct investment (FDI) in the northern coastal province of Quang Ninh so far.

VOV.VN - Vietnam has so far attracted 1,135 foreign-invested projects in the real estate sector with a total registered capital reaching US$68.045 billion, according to data provided by the Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI).

Standard Chartered Bank expects Vietnam to have a robust GDP growth of 6.7% in 2024 (6.2% and 6.9% in the first half and second half of the year, respectively).

VOV.VN - Boasting a highly-open economy, Vietnam has great potential to attract high-quality foreign direct investment (FDI) from major enterprises worldwide, according to insiders.
