On the evening of September 21 (local time), in New York City, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh attended a discussion and had a working dinner with leaders of leading multinational corporations and financial investment funds in the US, according to VNA. At the discussion, representatives of investment funds said that Vietnam is being assessed by international organizations as a bright spot in attracting investment, gradually converging many factors to develop a modern financial market, aiming to form a financial center, capable of connecting with financial centers in the region and the world thanks to many advantages. Delegates said that building an international financial center for Vietnam is a new and complicated issue, therefore, the selection of the model and method of building a financial center needs to be carried out on the basis of selectively absorbing international lessons. The consistent principle must be to create a “playground” for international financial investors, with common rules of the game, compatible with international practices (operating mechanisms, developing ecosystems, incentives, etc.), but at the same time must be suitable for Vietnam's practical conditions.
