Introduction
Notwithstanding Vietnam’s recent fascination with listedcompanies, the Private Equity sector has been quietly providing an avenue for growth for many Vietnamesecompanies. With the recent global slowdown and theinevitable effects on the Vietnamese economy, Grant Thornton Vietnam sought to gain a more detailedunderstanding and insight into Private Equity participants andtheir investment intentions.Our survey, which was titled “Private Equity – VietnamInvestment Environment and Outlook Survey”, involved 169selected participants involved in a broad cross-section of theinvestment community with an interest in Private Equity investments. Participants covered both Vietnamese andforeign parties, and included advisors to the industry. This report, part two of a two-part series, looks at specificindustry sectors in Vietnam and the investment outlook forthese sectors, along with problems and obstacles faced by Private Equity investors in Vietnam.Part one of the series looked at where key industry participants feel Vietnam’s economy is currently heading, where the country is in investment preference compared toother destinations, and where participants intend to invest inthe coming year. The results of the survey have been encouraging, providing auseful guide, highlighting that not everyone is pessimistic, value is seen by many in Vietnam, and that ultimately  Vietnam remains an attractive place for Private Equity investment.
“Vietnam is considered by many as an attractive destination forinvestment, but it is certainly notan easy destination to invest in.Government red tape, uncertainty in the legal system and under-developed infrastructure,contribute to the difficulties facedby international investors.Investors that can persevere and work through these issues cansucceed and reap the rewards.”
