Vietnam Leads Emerging Markets in Terms of Investment Attraction: Report
Vietnam is taking the lead among emerging markets worldwide in terms of foreign investment attraction over the next five years besides BRIC nations, the investment consultancy firm U.K. Trade & Investment said in its recent report.
This is the second consecutive year Vietnam has been chosen by U.K. Trade and Investment for the first position in the “Survive and Prosper: emerging markets in the global recession” report, followed by United Arab Emirates and Mexico.
Half of the top ten markets are in Asia, the firm said.
The report was based on a global survey of more than 540 high level business executives from across 19 business sectors.
It is aimed to raise U.K. investors’ awareness of bright opportunities in emerging countries, including Vietnam.
Currently, the U.K. is the third largest EU investor in Vietnam with 109 projects worth US$2.04 billion, behind France and the Netherlands. (Chinhphu.vn, VNA)
