Credit: World Bank

This Viet Nam Economic Update is a macroeconomic review of the country, published by the World Bank in May 2026. Its title, Sustaining Reforms, Navigating Uncertainty, points to the central question: how Viet Nam keeps its reform agenda moving while the external environment stays unsettled. A World Bank team of economists prepared the analysis.

The report covers recent economic developments, the global backdrop and the Middle East shock, and the outlook and risks for the economy, along with the policy priorities it identifies. Its sections on real sector activity, external balances, prices, monetary policy, the financial sector and public finances make it a useful reference for investors, business leaders, analysts and policymakers who need a sourced view of Viet Nam’s economy in 2026.

What’s inside:

  • Global developments, including the Middle East shock
  • Recent economic developments: real sector and activity, external balances and buffers, prices, monetary policy and the financial sector, and public finances
  • Outlook, risks and policy priorities
