At the conference jointly organized by the Ministry of Finance and the Government Office in Hanoi, leaders of ministries, diplomatic agencies, international organizations, and stock market members evaluated stock market activities in 2023 and outlined orientations and tasks ahead in 2024.

Chairwoman of the State Securities Commission Vu Thi Chan Phuong said amid the complex developments in the international financial and stock markets, the Vietnamese stock market saw a rapid recovery thanks to support from a stable macroeconomy, and proactive, flexible, and drastic management of the Government as well as the close co-ordination of relevant ministries, sectors, and units.
The market structure is being increasingly perfected, with many important results recorded in achieving set goals and continuing to be a bright spot to attract domestic and foreign investors, as well as being an effective capital channel for the national economy.
