Ms. Era Dabla-Norris also congratulated the Vietnam Government and the Ministry of Finance for maintaining safe and stable public finance. She appreciated Vietnam for implementing the Covid-19 vaccination program quickly and effectively, thereby helping the country to open up and recover its economy.

Appreciating the Vietnam Government for launching the program of socio-economic recovery and development through fiscal support packages to assist people and the business community affected by the public health crisis, she said that the IMF forecasts Vietnam's economic growth in 2022 at about 6% of GDP.

The Minister said that assessments of IMF’s experts on Vietnam's macroeconomic and financial situation in 2021-2022 and recommendations to improve the legal framework and macroeconomic policy management in the near future are consistent with the actual situation.

The Ministry of Finance will continue to study the IMF’s recommendations to effectively administer macro-financial policies and restore a stable economy.

The Minister suggested that the IMF will continue to provide technical consultancy to reform public financial management and enhance the qualifications of the ministry’s officers, especially sharing good practices in tax administration, tax policy, artificial intelligence application tools, and big data in tax administration.

The two sides also agreed to exchange experiences in financial market management, including the corporate bond market.
