FDI capital increased by nearly 67% over the same period last year.

As of January 20, 2024, the total newly registered, adjusted, and contributed foreign investment capital to purchase shares and purchase capital contributions by foreign investors reached more than 2.36 billion USD, an increase of 40.2% over the same period in 2023.

During the month, 190 new projects were granted Investment Registration Certificates, up 24.2% over the same period; with total registered capital reaching over 2 billion USD, up 66.9% over the same period.

According to the Foreign Investment Agency, one of the main factors driving the sharp increase in foreign investment capital is the sharp increase in the number of projects and the appearance of large-scale projects (over 600 million USD).
