Clarify the assignment of the Government to regulate the threshold for revenue not subject to tax
At the meeting on April 20, the Government proposed amending tax laws in the direction of not rigidly stipulating the threshold for revenue not subject to tax in the law, but assigning the Government to specifically regulate. The goal is to create flexibility in fiscal policy management, promptly supporting business households, individuals and small businesses in the face of cost and market fluctuations.
Reporting on the appraisal of the draft Law, Chairman of the Economic and Finance Committee Phan Van Mai requested the Government to explain more clearly and convincingly about this proposal, because previously the revenue thresholds had been carefully discussed by the National Assembly. At the same time, it is necessary to comprehensively review tax laws to ensure consistency if the authority to regulate is transferred to the Government.
Regarding the specific threshold level, opinions are still different: from the proposal to increase to 500 million VND to 2-3 billion VND/year for business households and small businesses. The appraisal agency emphasized that tax policies need to be designed in the direction of substantive support, suitable for practice, avoiding small-scale and fragmented adjustments. See more...

Bond capital inflows into production channels are still very low
Data from the Vietnam Bond Market Association shows that in March 2026, the total value of corporate bond issuance reached more than 39.400 billion VND, of which private placement accounted for nearly 65%. In the first quarter of 2026, the issuance scale increased 2.1 times compared to the same period last year, showing that the market shows clear signs of recovery.
The issuance structure has a notable change when the real estate group accounts for a large proportion (about 45-61%), while banks rank second. Conversely, manufacturing, industry and infrastructure industries account for a very low proportion, reflecting the market imbalance. At the same time, risks still appear with cases of late payment of interest and principal and great maturity pressure in the remaining time of the year. See more...
