HANOI, Dec. 4 (Xinhua) -- Vietnam's mergers and acquisitions (M&A) market is eyeing a booming year in 2025 when delayed deals are likely to resume thanks to a better business environment, Vietnam News Agency cited experts as saying on Wednesday.

Nguyen Cong Ai, deputy general director of KPMG Vietnam, said investors' interest was diversifying to many new and attractive sectors besides old ones like real estate, consumption and industry.

He predicted that the country will continue to attract investment in key sectors such as real estate, consumer goods, and the industrial sector, with emerging opportunities in technology, renewable energy, and finance.

David Jackson, general director of Avison Young Vietnam, said industry, logistics, commercial housing, offices and complex projects would dominate Vietnam's M&A market in the coming year.

Experts forecast that the return of investors, particularly from Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and the United States, is expected to drive the M&A market's recovery.

According to the Ministry of Planning and Investment, there was a decline in M&A deals in the first 10 months of 2024.

Only 2,669 foreign-invested deals valued at over 3.68 billion U.S. dollars in total were reported, down 10.4 percent in the number of deals and 29 percent in value compared to 2023, the ministry said. Enditem
