VIS Rating expects property bond issuance to remain high as developers face refinancing needs for 167 trillion Vietnamese dong (about 6.52 billion U.S. dollars) in bonds maturing in the fourth quarter of 2026 and in 2027, alongside funding requirements for major development projects.
Meanwhile, the Vietnamese government has introduced measures to encourage affordable rental housing and greater private-sector participation, including land-use fee exemptions, infrastructure support and land allocations for rental housing projects.
