Vietnam’s fintech evolution is entering an exciting new chapter, driven by a rapid digital shift, strong mobile adoption, and an ambitious push toward financial inclusion. As the country aims to become a digital-first economy by 2030, financial institutions are accelerating their transformation journeys, leveraging AI, embedded finance, cloud-native infrastructure, and open banking to stay ahead.
With over 84% of the population using smartphones and nearly 80% of transactions now being digital, Vietnam is one of Southeast Asia’s fastest-growing digital economies. According to the latest industry reports, the country’s fintech market is projected to hit $50.21 billion by 2030, fuelled by rising investor confidence and increasing consumer demand for faster, seamless financial services.
The government’s recent green light to expand its fintech regulatory sandbox and plans to issue comprehensive guidelines on digital banking in 2026 are setting the stage for breakthrough innovations across the ecosystem.
To spotlight these developments and connect the country’s top financial minds with global innovators, World Financial Innovation Series (WFIS) is returning to Hanoi on 19 – 20 May 2026. The event will convene 500+ key decision-makers from leading banks, insurance firms, digital lenders, and microfinance institutions to explore what’s next for Vietnam’s digital finance sector.
