According to the Department of Business Registration Management at the Ministry of Planning and Investment, following the implementation of a range of solutions, positive trends were maintained and became increasingly clear in many industries and fields in the closing months of 2023. The business landscape in 2023 saw similar trends, with the number of newly-registered enterprises increasing strongly thanks to the effectiveness of measures to address difficulties and resolve problems facing the business community. However, the number of businesses leaving the market also rose, and far exceeded the number of newly-registered enterprises, showing that difficulties and challenges still beset the business sector. Vietnamese authorities may consider implementing policies to provide additional support to businesses and individuals, to support aggregate demand in the economy.
