Vietnam has been quite successful in attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows since the
inception of economic reform in 1986 and the inflow of FDI has contributed significantly to the
economic development of Vietnam. A new wave of FDI driven by global uncertainty such as the US-
China trade war and the COVID-19 pandemic is imminent in Vietnam, and it will have a significant
impact on the economy.
