1. Vietnam Welcomes a New Wave of Investment as Capital Flows into Real Estate.

 

 

Vietnam is entering a new investment cycle as global capital increasingly seeks stability, diversification, and reliable income amid inflation, higher interest rates, geopolitical tensions, and fragmented trade. According to Savills, Asia-Pacific real estate investment rose 19.2% year-on-year in Q1 2026. In Vietnam, international investors are showing interest across multiple segments, including residential developments, offices, industrial and logistics properties, hotels, and commercial real estate. Singapore and South Korea accounted for the largest shares of newly registered FDI in Q1. Investors are increasingly prioritizing strategic locations, strong operations, sustainable cash flow, and long-term value rather than relying primarily on capital appreciation.

2. Da Nang Strengthens Land Management and Enforcement.

 

Da Nang authorities have issued a new directive to strengthen land management, improve enforcement and ensure land is used more effectively. The city identified ongoing violations in some areas, including unauthorized changes in land use, encroachment, spontaneous subdivision and land sales, and illegal construction on agricultural land. The directive also calls for reviewing and updating local land regulations to address overlaps and inconsistencies in existing laws, while improving coordination and legal guidance for residents and businesses.

 

The city will prioritize resources to resolve long-standing issues involving projects and land affected by inspection conclusions, court judgments and previous legal obstacles. Authorities are also required to monitor compliance with approved planning, strictly handle encroachment and illegal construction, and ensure land is used for the correct purposes. Local authorities will take greater responsibility for land management, while the city’s Land Fund Development Center will identify vacant and unused land and propose plans to manage and utilize these areas more efficiently, helping unlock land resources for future development.

3. Rothschild Family Seeks to Raise Capital for Vietnam’s $67B High-Speed Railway and Major Power Projects.

 

Vietnam is exploring potential cooperation with Rothschild & Co to strengthen its financial markets and mobilize international capital. During a meeting in Paris on September 11, the financial group proposed supporting Vietnam in improving its sovereign credit rating, expanding the international investor base, developing domestic capital markets and unlocking value from State-owned assets. Rothschild & Co also expressed interest in helping raise capital for major infrastructure projects, including the North-South high-speed railway, estimated at around US$67 billion, and power projects under the Power Development Plan VIII.

 

The proposals come as Vietnam expects investment needs to rise significantly during 2026-2031, with total social investment targeted at more than 40% of GDP. The government sees the bond market as an important funding channel and is working with Moody’s, Fitch and S&P to improve the country’s credit rating and reduce borrowing costs. The two sides also discussed improving State-owned enterprises, with Rothschild & Co potentially supporting Vietnam’s restructuring plans and capital mobilization efforts.

4. 4 Major Real Estate Projects in Da Nang Clear Legal Hurdles.

 

Da Nang authorities have recently cleared legal and land-related obstacles for four long-delayed real estate projects, allowing them to continue with land allocation and leasing procedures. The projects include the nearly 14ha Cổ Cò Riverside Urban and Tourism Service Area, the 29.9ha An Phú Residential Area, the 7.4ha Residential Area No. 2 in An Thắng, and the 19.1ha residential development along the extended Điện Biên Phủ Road in Hội An Tây. Several projects have been affected for years by issues involving land procedures, compensation, site clearance and investment approvals.

 

The decisions are part of Da Nang’s broader effort to resolve outstanding issues across 350 projects and land sites under special mechanisms approved by the National Assembly. While the latest decisions create a pathway for these projects to move forward, they do not mean all legal procedures have been completed. Developers must still address inspection and audit requirements, complete land, investment, construction, environmental and fire safety procedures, and fulfill financial obligations. The move is expected to help unlock stalled land resources and accelerate project implementation.

5. Feedback on the Draft Land Law Amendment. 

 

Vietnam’s National Assembly held a consultation workshop in Da Nang on September 14 to gather feedback on the draft amended Land Law. The event focused on improving land management, removing legal bottlenecks and unlocking the economic value of land resources. Officials emphasized the need to better protect legitimate land-user rights while simplifying procedures, reducing compliance costs and creating a more efficient framework for land transactions and development. The revised law is also expected to align with the Housing Law, Real Estate Business Law and the two-tier local government model.

 

The Government has approved seven key policy groups for the amendment, covering land-use planning, land allocation and leasing, land recovery and compensation, land finance and pricing, land-user rights and obligations, administrative reform and digital transformation, and stronger inspection and enforcement. Experts and local authorities contributed practical recommendations, including resolving overlapping regulations and clarifying which provisions should be included in the law or subordinate legislation. The consultation process will support preparations for submission to the National Assembly, with approval targeted for its second session in 2026.
