Luxembourg and Vietnam have formalised a strategic partnership to channel European capital into Vietnam\u2019s green finance and infrastructure sectors, leveraging Luxembourg\u2019s expertise as a global financial hub. The agreement, signed on October 12 during a working session in Hanoi, aims to attract long-term international investment to support Vietnam\u2019s ambitious economic growth targets.<\/p>\n
Vietnamese Finance Minister Ngo Van Tuan highlighted the country\u2019s strong economic performance, with GDP growth of 9.01% in the first nine months of 2026 and record foreign direct investment disbursements of $21.07 billion\u2014the highest in five years. To sustain this momentum, Vietnam seeks to mobilise international funds, particularly through Luxembourg\u2019s alternative investment vehicles and European Long-Term Investment Funds (ELTIFs).<\/p>\n
Luxembourg\u2019s Finance Minister Gilles Roth emphasised the country\u2019s role as a leader in asset management, overseeing \u20ac9 trillion in investments, and its commitment to fiscal discipline and green finance. The two sides agreed to strengthen ties between the Vietnam Stock Exchange (VNX) and the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (LuxSE), focusing on dual listings and transparency for green financial instruments. This collaboration could enhance Vietnam\u2019s access to international capital while positioning Luxembourg as a gateway for ASEAN investments.<\/p>\n
Key priorities include financing Vietnam\u2019s public transport and infrastructure projects, areas identified by the Luxembourg delegation during visits to Hanoi. Vietnam also seeks Luxembourg\u2019s support in developing its International Financial Centre in Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang into a regional green finance hub. The partnership will cover legal frameworks, green bond issuance, workforce training, and regulatory innovation, including fintech and artificial intelligence in financial supervision.<\/p>\n
The memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed by the ministers provides a framework for knowledge-sharing, institutional capacity-building, and personnel training. It aligns with broader EU-Vietnam cooperation, including efforts to ratify the EU-Vietnam Investment Protection Agreement (EVIPA), which would further stabilise the investment climate. By combining Luxembourg\u2019s financial sophistication with Vietnam\u2019s growth ambitions, the partnership aims to create sustainable investment pathways for both economies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
