| Summary: | Much has been said of Vietnam lately, in which Singapore clinched the top
investor placing for 1994. Newspapers consistently portray the country as an
emerging dragon. We believe that in time to come, Vietnam will prosper. It is with
this mindset that we carry out this research project which seeks to capture a part of
the action in such exciting times.
This study aims to provide readers with a better understanding of the many
financial problems and concerns of investors who placed their bets on Vietnam. By
exploring the banking environment and using it as a backdrop, we will evaluate the
different banking needs of investors engaged in diverse business operations. Our
report has been designed to be as interesting as it is informative. We hope that the
issues discussed in this study will prove useful to potential investors and bankers
habouring the thought of joining the band-wagon headed for this land of
opportunities.
We will concentrate on the major financial considerations of investors, rather
than minute details. Throughout the project, we did our best to overcome certain
limitations and constraints encountered during the course of our research in terms of
fact-finding and data verification, and organized a fieldtrip to Vietnam itself To sum
up, it has been a most enriching and enjoyable experience for the three of us working
together on this applied research project which certainly provided experiences for us
to reminisce about in the future.
