The Prime Minister described the event as a “pivotal milestone” marking a shift from institutionalizing a Party guideline to implementing and operating a modern financial and fintech framework to support Vietnam’s national advancement.

He stressed the need to prioritize high-quality human resource training, expand international cooperation, and cultivate financial experts capable of operating the center effectively. The Prime Minister urged strong participation by both international and domestic businesses.

"International investors were encouraged to honor their commitments, expand their presence, transfer advanced financial governance technologies, and engage strongly in aviation, maritime services, and fintech. Vietnamese enterprises, particularly major corporations, were called upon to take the lead as founding members, and use the center’s services to mobilize international capital, issue bonds, and strengthen risk management capacity. The goal is to make the Vietnam International Financial Center a growth driver and a beacon of development," he added.
