Last year, Ha Noi led the nation in terms of FDI attraction, luring 8.45 billion USD, the highest amount in the past decade. The FDI inflow to the city accounted for 22.2 percent of the nation’s total FDI in 2019.

The processing and manufacturing sector remained the most alluring to foreign investors, followed by real estate and science and technology.

Noteworthy projects in the year included Hong Kong-based Beerco Limited’s investment of 3.85 billion USD in Vietnam Beverage Co.,Ltd, and a 420-million USD horse-racing complex by Charmvit Group of the Republic of Korea.

Director of the Department of Planning and Investment Nguyen Manh Quyen said that the city targets to attract 35-45 billion USD in FDI, equivalent to 23 percent of the country’s total FDI inflows during 2020-2025.

Besides, the city needs some 3 quadrillion VND (128.78 billion USD) in development investment. Therefore, it is necessary for Ha Noi to accelerate reform of administrative procedures, improve its business climate, remove bottlenecks for local firms as well as promote startup and innovation, Quyen said.
