Amid global uncertainties, the continued maintenance of macro-economic stability will form an important foundation for Vietnam to achieve next year’s growth target, said General Director of the General Statistics Office (GSO) Nguyen Thi Huong.

Deputy Prime Minister Le Minh Khai on December 27 asked the Ministry of Finance (MoF) to effectively put in place issued policies and those expected to be adopted in order to untangle knots facing businesses, control inflation, and spur socio-economic recovery and development, thus achieving the targets set for 2024.

With the pace of economic activities on the mend and inflation rates already easing below the target level, the State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) will maintain its refinancing rate at the current level of 4.5% to support economic recovery, the United Overseas Bank (UOB) said in a report.
