At the Vietnam M&A Forum 2024 held in Ho Chi Minh City last weekend, Deputy Minister of Planning and Investment Nguyen Duc Tam said that despite current challenges, the M&A sector will soon recover and experience robust growth. He noted that investors are likely to return, and M&A activity is expected to become vibrant once again.
Mr. Tam said in the first 9 months of 2024, the M&A market recorded a total transaction value of 3.2 billion USD, marking a 45.9% increase compared to the same period last year. The average transaction value stood at 56.3 million USD, while the highest deal reached 982 million USD. Notably, 88% of transaction value came from the real estate, essential consumer goods, and industrial sectors.
Next year, the M&A market is anticipated to see even more positive developments, with increased participation from investors from Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and the United States.
