Grant Thornton Vietnam is pleased to share the latest issue of Vietnam Economic News Insight & Recap, our monthly publication offering key updates on Vietnam’s economy. As a professional services firm with deep market expertise, we aim to provide practical insights to help businesses and investors navigate Vietnam's evolving business landscape.

Vietnam’s economy sustained strong momentum in July, supported by stable FDI inflows and a solid trade surplus. The month was marked by a notable development: the U.S. decision to impose a 20% tariff on Vietnamese goods, which is a reduction from the initially announced 46% but still higher than previous levels. This move underscores a shifting and more complex trade environment that Vietnam will need to navigate in the months ahead.

In this edition of our Vietnam Economic News Insight & Recap, we examine key developments shaping Vietnam’s outlook:

  • Stable FDI inflows and steady trade performance in the first seven months of 2025;

  • Signs of manufacturing recovery, with tariff concerns weighing on the outlook;

  • Industry experts' forecasts for Vietnam’s export trends in the coming months;

  • Accelerated plans to establish international financial centers;

and much more.

We look forward to sharing these insights each month with you.
