BÁO CÁO VIETNAM CEO INSIGHT 2021

FOREWORD

he spread of the fourth Covid-19 wave with the Delta variant has dealt a strong “punch” to the world eco-
nomic recovery and has more clearly depicted the “fragility” of the global supply chain. As a country with
Tin-depth international economic integration, the Government of Vietnam and enterprises have had to come
up with unprecedented solutions in terms of economy, health, social activities as well as production and business
activities to minimize “injuries and damages” triggered by the pandemic. Although Vietnam’s GDP growth for the
first 9 months of 2021 was only 1.42% amid the implementation of prolonged social distancing in major cities,
Vietnam’s economy remained stable, creating a good foundation for the economic recovery and sustainable growth
in the future. In the last months of this year when the social distancing measures are eased, it is also the time
when the Government, enterprises and people are united to overcome difficulties as well as are determined to
quickly develop new production and business strategies - models to suit the scale, circumstances and changes in
psychology and habits of today’s consumers.

In such a context and within the framework of the announcement of the VIX50 Ranking - Top 50 Reputable Public
Companies in Vietnam and Top 10 Reputable Companies in The Banking - Insurance - Technology in 2021, Report

prises and recovery strategies in the next normal”. In addition to the assessment of the prospects on the
macro economy, as well as the export potential of Vietnam in the year-end period, the Report also focuses on ana-
lyzing business trends and strategies, the top priority of CEOs in developing an organization full of dynamism, cre-
ativity and sustainability. In addition, the Report further clarifies digitally integrated business models, suitable for
Vietnamese enterprises, helping expand the value chain and forecast to bring competitive advantages in the mar-
ket in the long term.
