Vietnam Credit Conditions in 2H 2025

Vietnam now stands at a critical juncture after a strong start to 2025. GDP growth in Q1 reached 6.93%, reflecting robust growth across multiple industry sectors. The astonishing tariffs announced by the Trump administration in April sent financial markets and businesses to shock, crippling business plans, and disrupting the order of global trade and supply chains.

As governments grapple with risks of escalating trade tensions and navigating their economies through turbulence, many questions remain around how Vietnam will emerge from this debacle. Will the worsening export conditions derail Vietnam’s course to achieve its 8% GDP growth target for 2025? Will Vietnam's export-oriented industries have the capacity and agility to overcome the looming tariffs? How will the government policies be pivotal to support domestic growth, and also, drive Vietnam’s economic reform into the new era?

Join us for the next edition of our Vietnam Bonds & Credit Forum webinar series on 5 June 2025, as we discuss your key questions with our esteemed guests from Moody’s and key opinion leaders in Vietnam.
