Deputy PM Hai made the statement during the 2014 annual conference for investors held by the VinaCapital in Hanoi on October 16. The event attracted international investors and partners seeking investment opportunities in the country.

He valued the positive impacts of organisations and businesses in promoting and calling for foreign partners to invest in Vietnam, helping diversify investment attracting channels, and seeking effective investment models in order to build up projects in the country.

Deputy PM Hai affirmed the Government policy of encouraging and facilitating foreign groups, businesses and investors to invest in Vietnam, saying that maintained growth targets and stabilised macro-balance form an important basis for a potential investment environment in the future.

The Government official discussed investment opportunities directly with investors, while noting policies in several key fields ─ including energy, infrastructure and industrial manufacture ─ in which the Government is particularly focused on in order to ease public investment burden.

At the gathering, VinaCapital leaders informed the attendees of the investment situation in the country and the group. Investors then exchanged and updated investment information and discussed measures to boost investment co-operation in infrastructure, real estate and capital market.

The conference also introduced investment in social entrepreneurs and the development of open-ended funds in Vietnam. Beside the discussions, field trips to businesses and projects invested by the VinaCapital were also organised.

VinaCapital group in Vietnam is experienced in managing assets and investment and developing real estate business with a diverse investment list and a total managed value of US$1.5 billion. It is managing three close-ended funds listed at London Stock Exchange.
