Vietnam posts $100m trade surplus in July

This was despite market expectations of a $150 million deficit.

OCBC noted:

Vietnam posted a strong $100 million trade surplus in July despite market expectations of a $150 million deficit.

Inflation continues to slow to a 32 month low of -0.29% mom in July, giving SBV more room to loosen its monetary policy to support growth.

Government debt is to adhere to a lower cap of 55% of GDP by 2020. Debt accumulation is also not allowed to exceed 25% of total state budget revenue every year.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
