BMI Research: Vietnam's economy to grow at 6.4% in 2015
The BMI Research, a Fitch Group company, has forecast positive prospects for Vietnam's economy in the remaining months of 2015 with the GDP growth to rise to 6.4% in 2015 from 6.0% in 2014.
In addition, Vietnam also has a strong potential in the construction and real estate sectors. The relaxation of the rules of property ownership for foreigners, effective from July 2015 will allow foreign investors to participate further in the real estate market of Vietnam.
The BMI Research said if Vietnam continues to carry out a loose monetary policy and reduce the rate of inflation it will motivate the construction and real estate sectors.
The report said that Vietnam will continue to attract more FDI in the coming quarters and years thanks to continuous efforts to consolidate the macroeconomic stability.
It also noted that the ongoing privatisation of State-owned enterprises will help increase the health of the banking system while freeing more resources to reallocate to the private sector. It added that the promotion of the potential of the private sector will create a motivation for Vietnam's economic growth in the long term.
