The funding is expected to promote the bilateral trade and investment cooperation between the two countries, focusing on the fields of food, renewable energy, automobile manufacturing and agriculture.
The Italian Ambassador to Việt Nam Marco Della Seta said Italy intends to become a strategic trade and industrial partner of Việt Nam.
He emphasised that bilateral trade will continue to increase, which in 2023 stood at 6.1 billion euro (US$6.56 billion) of which Việt Nam’s exports contributed more than 72 per cent.
Michal Ron, chief international business officer of SACE, said Việt Nam has a rapidly growing economy coupled with the deep international integration and is becoming an attractive destination for Italian companies looking for investment opportunities.
She added that negotiations are being conducted with several Vietnamese companies, such as Nutifood and PVPower, to deliver on the investment.
The financing will be implemented through international and domestic banks.
