📉 Impact de la COVID-19 sur les investissements étrangers en Asie du Sud-Est

Le script aborde l'effet de la pandémie de COVID-19 sur les investissements étrangers directs (FDI) en Asie du Sud-Est, qui ont chuté de 25% à 136 milliards de dollars, avec une baisse dans tous les principaux bénéficiaires, y compris le Vietnam (-2%). Le RCEP est devenu l'un des plus grands groupes de bénéficiaires d'FDI. La baisse des investissements mondiaux en 2020 a été dramatique, avec une chute de 35% à 1 000 milliards de dollars, principalement due à la baisse des investissements dans les pays développés. Les économies en développement ont été moins affectées, avec une baisse de 8%, principalement en raison des flux résilients en Asie. Le rapport souligne l'importance de l'investissement pour soutenir une reprise durable et inclusive de la pandémie, en promouvant l'investissement dans les infrastructures, la transition énergétique, la résilience et la santé. Le Vietnam montre de nombreux signes positifs de reprise après la pandémie, offrant des opportunités d'investissement dans le marché potentiel de la région du Sud-Est asiatique.

Welcome to ICHAM Connected Channel

play00:02

2022 marks the 34th anniversary of Vietnam

play00:06

officially opening its doors to the first wave of direct foreign investment

play00:12

and becoming a bright spot for attracting FDI investors from around the world.

play00:17

Let us take a look back at the following significant milestones in the journey

play00:21

that has resulted in a large number of turning points and significant achievements for the economy

play00:26

and overall development of the country.

play00:30

At the end of 1987, Foreign Investment Law was approved by the National Assembly,

play00:35

formalizing foreign capital flows into Vietnam.

play00:39

At the start of 1988, the Government tasked the Ministry of Foreign Economic Affairs

play00:45

with evaluating and licensing FDI projects.

play00:49

In the same year, the Ministry of Foreign Economic Affairs issued the first license for a direct foreign investment project,

play00:57

paving the way for a series of future projects.

play01:02

In March 1989,

play01:04

the State Committee for Cooperation and Investment (or SCCI) was established

play01:10

to handle FDI projects licensed by the Ministry of Foreign Economic Affairs.

play01:16

In 2007, Vietnam joined the World Trade Organization (or WTO)

play01:22

a bright moment in the renovation journey

play01:24

when our country officially became

play01:26

the 150th member of the world's largest trade organization.

play01:31

Since then, Vietnam has been ready and confident to integrate,

play01:35

open its economy, and increase international cooperation.

play01:40

In 2008, Vietnam welcomed up to 64 billion USD in FDI,

play01:47

which was three times more than in 2007.

play01:50

In 2020, Vietnam was ranked 19th in the world in terms of attracting the most FDI.

play01:58

During the Covid-19 pandemic in 2021,

play02:01

the Government of Vietnam was determined to fight the pandemic with timely measures

play02:06

and issued Resolutions 105/NQ-CP, and 128/NQ-CP,...

play02:13

which promote economic development and help the FDI business community remain confident.

play02:20

Despite the pandemic, several large investors decided to invest during the market exploration process.

play02:28

Vietnam will remain an appealing destination for foreign capital flows in 2022.

play02:33

In the first five months, there have been 578 newly-licensed projects,

play02:40

and 395 adjusted projects, with 1339 enterprises contributing capital by shares.

play02:49

Vietnam received a total of 11.7 billion USD in foreign direct investment (FDI).

play02:55

The newly-licensed investment capital was 4.1 billion,

play02:59

the adjusted capital was 5.6 billion,

play03:02

and the share purchase capital was 1.98 billion.

play03:08

The Government always promotes an open business investment environment and flexible policies.

play03:13

The Law on Investment, which combines the Laws on Domestic and Foreign Investment,

play03:18

established equality between domestic and FDI enterprises.

play03:22

Furthermore, the state gradually reduced corporate income tax in order to improve the investment climate.

play03:29

Moreover, in order to build trust with foreign partners, domestic enterprises must strive to improve capacity in all areas,

play03:38

from technology to the level of workers and managers.

play03:42

There is no doubt that FDI has a big impact on the economy's growth.

play03:48

It helps Vietnam produce and export more,

play03:51

brings in more money for the Government, and gives people jobs.

play03:54

It also helps Vietnam improve its status, role, and position in the international community.

play04:02

We have to notice that

play04:03

For the first time, Vietnam is among the top 20 countries attracting

play04:08

the most foreign direct investment (FDI) capital in the world,

play04:11

according to the World Investment Report 2021

play04:15

by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD).

play04:19

In 2020, Vietnam ranked 19th globally as an FDI host country

play04:24

with $16 billion in investment capital, up five places compared with 2019.

play04:32

FDI fell by 2 per cent in Vietnam because of significant investment contractions

play04:37

in manufacturing and real estate activities, the two largest recipients last year,

play04:42

but was cushioned by a rise in investment in electricity projects.

play04:47

Inflows from major Asian countries (e.g. China, Hong Kong (China), Japan, Republic of Korea),

play04:55

which have traditionally been the largest sources of FDI to Vietnam, declined.

play05:00

The decline is much lower than in other countries.

play05:04

FDI in Southeast Asia – normally an engine of growth for global FDI,

play05:09

contracted by 25 per cent to $136 billion,

play05:15

with declines in investment in all the largest recipients,

play05:19

including Singapore (-21 per cent),

play05:22

Indonesia (-22 per cent),

play05:25

and Vietnam (-2 per cent).

play05:29

The newly-signed Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) became one of the largest FDI recipient groups.

play05:40

The report says that the COVID-19 crisis caused a dramatic fall in FDI in 2020.

play05:47

Global FDI flows dropped by 35 per cent to $1 trillion, from $1.5 trillion in 2019.

play05:58

This is almost 20 per cent below 2009 through after the global financial crisis.

play06:04

The decline was heavily skewed towards developed countries, where FDI fell by 58 per cent,

play06:11

in part due to oscillations caused by corporate transactions and in transforming financial flows.

play06:19

FDI in developing economies decreased by a more moderate 8 per cent, mainly because of resilient flows in Asia.

play06:27

As a result, developing economies accounted for two-thirds of global FDI, up from just under half in 2019.

play06:36

All components of FDI were down last year.

play06:39

The overall contraction in new project activity, combined with a slowdown in cross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&A),

play06:49

led to a decline in equity investment flows by more than 50 per cent.

play06:54

With profits of multinational enterprises (MNEs) down 36 per cent on average,

play07:02

reinvested earnings of foreign affiliates – an important part of FDI in normal years, were also down.

play07:11

According to the report, increasing investment to support a sustainable and inclusive recovery

play07:17

from the pandemic is now a global policy priority.

play07:21

This entails promoting investment in infrastructure and the energy transition,

play07:26

resilience and in healthcare.

play07:30

And right now, Vietnam shows many positive signs of recovery after the pandemic.

play07:35

So if you have a plan for developing new business in the potential market

play07:40

in Southe East Asia, especially in Vietnam,

play07:43

let’s consider this time.

play07:45

ICHAM Vietnam will come along with you.
