OECD Investment Policy Reviews: Viet Nam 2009 : Policy Framework for Investment Assessment This publication presents the results of the first OECD investment policy review of Vietnam. It finds that the progress Vietnam has achieved in less than two decades in putting into place a legal framework and implementing policies that mobilise private investment including international direct investment to support economic growth and the prosperity of Vietnam’s citizens has been remarkable. Starting from a situation in which the economy was essentially closed to private and international investment Vietnam is now considered to be one of the very attractive economies in the world for investment.
