China leads the number of new FDI projects in Vietnam
According to the Foreign Investment Agency, Ministry of Planning and Investment, 91 countries and territories invested in Vietnam in the first 7 months of 2024. In terms of quantity, China is the leading partner in the number of new investment projects in our country, accounting for 29.7%. Overall, China’s investment in Vietnam has increased by more than 7 times and become the 6th largest investor out of 146 investment partners of Vietnam.
According to economic experts, since 2019, in the context of the tense trade relations between China and the United States and the slowdown of China’s economic growth, Chinese investors have begun to seek opportunities in Vietnam. Statistics show that the investment capital flow from China to Vietnam increased sharply, from 2.92 billion USD in 2021 to 4.47 billion USD in 2023.
The trend of Chinese enterprises accelerating investment in Vietnam has shown signs of being much stronger since last year, when China abolished its Zero Covid policy.
Not only that, from focusing only on the manufacturing and processing of household wooden furniture, iron and steel, leather shoes, garments, food processing, plastic packaging, etc., the investment trend of this country is now shifting to high-tech industries, components, spare parts for industrial production, electronics, and automobiles.
