Restructuring a stable debt portfolio.

Realizing the goal of continuing to restructure the stable debt portfolio, the Ministry of Finance will issue government bonds with tenors of 10 years or more. Therefore, the remaining tenor of the Government bond debt portfolio has been maintained longer than in the previous period, reducing short-term debt repayment pressure.

The ministry has implemented debt repayment in full and on time as committed. In addition, it has effectively used sustainable debt management solutions, medium-term debt management programs, annual loan and repayment plans; strictly controlled government guarantees and on-lending loans; strengthened supervision and control of deficit expenditure and loans of local budgets, thereby, contributing to reducing public debt.

The public debt by the end of 2022 is expected at about 43-44% of GDP, the government debt is about 40-41% of GDP, and the government’s direct repayment is about 18-19% of total state budget revenue, lower than the ceiling and warning threshold allowed by the National Assembly in Resolution No. 23/2021/QH15 of the National Assembly.

Actively providing solutions to manage market prices

The Ministry of Finance has promoted the management of market prices in line with the actual situation, removed difficulties, expedited production and business, and controlled inflation; improved financial markets, and restructured state-owned enterprises.

Accordingly, the Ministry of Finance has regularly assessed and coordinated with relevant ministries and sectors to calculate and forecast factors affecting inflation, build scenarios, and recommend solutions to control market prices, suitable for each commodity, especially for petroleum products, and essential goods and services, which are administered and operated by the State.

Despite being greatly affected by the impact of price increases on the world market, the average consumer price index (CPI) in the first 11 months of 2022 increased by 3.02% year-on-year, contributing to controlling inflation under the target in 2022 (no more than 4%).

Regarding the development of the securities and corporate bond market, the Ministry has reviewed and completed legal documents to sustainably develop the securities, insurance and bond markets; strengthened inspection and supervision, and maintained the stable development of financial markets.

Regarding the stock market, in addition to improving the legal framework and policies for market development, the Ministry has expedited the state management for securities operators, securities issuance and public companies; inspected and handled violations to ensure the transparent development of the market.

In addition, the Ministry has researched and implemented digitization of financial assets on the stock market, applied new financial technologies (Fintech); standardized online account opening (e-contract); and electronic Know Your Customer (EKYC).
