Ho Chi Minh City is stepping up efforts to fulfill key conditions for the establishment of an international financial centre (IFC), seen as a strategic move to deepen Vietnam’s integration with global financial markets and provide new impetus for socio-economic breakthroughs.

Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has just approved a list of members of the Steering Committee for Regional and International Financial Centres in Vietnam.

The Vietnamese Government will work to ensure that policies and mechanisms for the planned international financial centre are distinctive, superior, and attractive to investors, while balancing benefits among the state, investors, and the public, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh said on May 20.

Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has laid stress on penning breakthrough and exceptional policies for an international financial centre to attract investors from the Middle East, China, ASEAN, the US, Europe and beyond.

After more than two decades of planning, the vision of establishing an international financial centre (IFC) in Ho Chi Minh City is finally gaining real momentum as the Politburo has officially endorsed the proposal, drawing significant attention from both domestic and international investors.

Permanent Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh on April 28 expressed his hoped that international organisations and financial institutions that have been doing business successfully in Vietnam will be the first members to be present at Vietnam’s first international financial centres and have a foothold in this market.

Vietnam is developing a roadmap for establishing an international financial centre (IFC), with the aim of building connections with major IFCs both regionally and globally.
