US $3.3 billion from foreign direct investment (FDI) businesses have been invested in production and US $8.3 billion more have been registered in the first 9 months; a 66% year on year increase.

The figures were released by the Foreign Investment Department under the Ministry of Planning and Investment in a recent report.

FDI businesses have reach the total turnover of US $25.8 billion, including an export proportion of US $14 billion, up by 32% against the same time last year.

This is the first year when all production and trade targets of the FDI sector in Vietnam have stayed at a record high.
