Vietnam’s education sector FDI down in capital despite new projects, October

Vietnam’s education and training sector recorded three new foreign direct investment projects in October, a 25 percent decrease from the four projects seen in September. Registered capital experienced a sharper decline, falling by 96.04 percent from US$8.02 million in September to US$318,000 in October, according to Ministry of Planning and Investment data. This decrease in capital highlights the variability in project scale within the education sector.

Year-to-date, the sector has attracted 32 projects, with total capital reaching US$38.44 million.

The education and training sector continues to attract interest from foreign investors, particularly as Vietnam’s demand for quality educational services rises. While monthly investment amounts may fluctuate, the sector remains an important part of Vietnam’s FDI landscape, supporting workforce development and educational innovation.
