Vietnam's M&A Surges in 2025, Led by Renewables and Tech
Vietnam's M&A landscape is thriving, with positive growth predicted until 2025, particularly in renewable energy, logistics, and fintech sectors. Despite challenges like high land costs and prolonged legal procedures, foreign investors are securing high-value deals.
The year's largest transaction saw VinFast Auto Ltd. sell 62% of Novatech Research and Development JSC to Vingroup Chairman Pham Nhat Vuong for $1.52 billion. Foreign investors like Appirits Inc. and HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering have also made significant acquisitions, with Appirits buying Bunbu for $241 million and HD Korea acquiring Doosan Vina for $210 million.
In the real estate sector, the average deal size has risen to $42 million, a 15% increase from 2022 to 2023. August 2025 saw 18 deals worth around $2.23 billion, driven by restructurings and strategic partnerships. SSG Group invested VNĐ507 billion to acquire nearly 12% of Seaprodex, targeting its prime land assets. Overall, the first eight months of 2025 saw a 21% increase in M&A transaction value to $4.8 billion compared to the same period last year.
While domestic firms dominate transaction volume, foreign investors are increasingly handling larger deals and significant projects due to their robust financial capabilities and long-term strategies. Despite challenges, the Vietnamese M&A market continues to grow, with positive predictions for the coming years.
