The Asian Development Bank has slightly raised the 2024 growth forecast for developing Asia of 46 countries, including Vietnam, thanks to stronger domestic demand and export growth.

ADB forecast that low domestic interest rates, fiscal policy measures, and wage increases will drive consumer services in 2024.

Vietnam's ineligibility for ADB's Asian Development Fund (ADF) 14 is a positive indication for the country, given its already high income level, said Tomuyuki Kymura, Head of the bank's Strategy and Policy Department.

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has maintained its earlier growth projection for Vietnam this year despite lingering uncertainties in the external environment. Vietnam’s economy is expected to grow at 6.0% and 6.2% in 2024 and 2025, respectively.

The local currency bond market in Vietnam grew 5.1 percent quarter-on-quarter to reach a size of VND2,626.1 trillion (US$111.9 billion) at the end of March.
