Vietnam’s foreign direct investment (FDI) reached its highest level in five years, with total registered capital of USD 26.14 billion in the first eight months of 2025 — up 27.3% year-on-year. Realized FDI stood at USD 15.4 billion, an 8.8% increase. The manufacturing and processing sector attracted 59.2% of new inflows, followed by real estate at 21.5%. Singapore, China, and Sweden were the top investors.
These results highlight Vietnam’s growing attractiveness as an investment hub in Asia. Political stability, competitive labor costs, and continued reforms in infrastructure and business procedures have strengthened investor confidence. Vietnam is increasingly seen as a reliable and dynamic destination for high-tech, manufacturing, and real estate investment.
Vietnamese outward investment also rose sharply, totaling USD 556.2 million – 3.8 times higher than last year. Key sectors included power, transport, and retail, with Laos, the Philippines, and Indonesia as leading destinations.
