PRIVATE EQUITY IN VIETNAM 2023: STEERING THROUGH CHALLENGES
Grant Thornton Vietnam is pleased to announce the release of our Private Equity Survey 2023 – an edition in our Private Equity Survey series.
After the tumultuous pandemic years of 2020-2021, the world was just beginning to move forward with the hope that 2022 and years ahead would be bright and positive. However, the combination of unexpected events including war, inflation, energy scarcity, and climate change since the later half of 2022 put the global economies on a threat recession. Aligned with the region’s trend, the Vietnam private equity industry faced strong headwinds in 2023 due to macro downturn, economy uncertainties and high financing cost, however with all what present, Vietnam is still an attractive market in the region.
We hope that this study will provide you some insights for decision-making and accelerate your growth journey in Vietnam. Please access the below link to view full report in English.

VIỆT NAM STEPS UP EXPORT TO ACHIEVE US$550-BILLION TARGET
Việt Nam is intensifying efforts to sustain export momentum in the second half of 2026 as the country works towards its target of US$550 billion in export revenue for the year, despite continuing uncertainties in global trade. Statistics show that exports reached $266.5 billion in the first six months, meaning the economy needs to generate around $245.5 billion more during the remainder of the year to meet the annual goal.

But behind that growth figure lies a lopsided picture: Asia is carrying the load, while the U.S. and Europe have yet to break out. These days, a container of frozen shrimp leaving a Ho Chi Minh City port is more likely to cross the East Vietnam Sea to Shanghai than the Pacific to Los Angeles.
