🚨 Samsung warns against global minimum tax, advocates seek fair tax distribution 🌍💰

Samsung, which has been one of the largest foreign investors in Vietnam, with a total investment of $17.5 billion so far, argues that the global minimum tax could reduce the competitiveness of Vietnam and other countries that have used tax incentives to attract foreign capital. In a recent meeting with Vietnamese Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh, Samsung's CEO Choi Joo-ho reportedly said that the proposed tax reform would hurt the company's investment plans in Vietnam and make it less appealing compared to other destinations.

However, supporters of the global minimum tax say that it is necessary to prevent tax avoidance by multinational corporations and to ensure a fair distribution of tax revenues among countries. They argue that countries like Vietnam, which have benefited from foreign investment but also face the risk of profit shifting, should also support the tax reform. They also note that the global minimum tax would not apply to small and medium-sized enterprises, which account for the majority of businesses in Vietnam.

The debate over the global minimum tax is likely to continue as the proposal is being discussed by the G20 and the OECD. While the details of the tax reform are still being worked out, it is clear that it will have significant implications for multinational companies and the countries where they operate. As citizens and consumers, we can follow this issue and express our views on what we think is a fair and effective tax system for the global economy.

🏦 The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) announced the lowering of the key refinancing rate by 50 bps to 5.5%, effective from Mon (3 Apr). This is the latest policy move to support economic growth. The SBV’s move did not come as a surprise, given the earlier announcements, and the unexpectedly soft 1Q23 GDP growth rate which was released a day earlier.

🔻 We continue to see scope for the SBV to lower by a total of 100 bps in 2Q23. This means that there is likely another reduction of the refinancing rate by a further 50 bps before the end of Jun. Beyond that, the SBV is likely to approach further rate cuts in a cautious and deliberate manner due to considerations for domestic prices and global developments.

📈 FX Outlook: The VND stood out as one of the most stable currencies in Asia. Despite the big shifts in Fed rate hike expectations, global recession worries and US banking turmoil, the VND traded a tight 0.8% from either side of 23,600/USD. Overall, we expect the USD/VND pair to track other USD/Asia pairs higher to 24,200 in 2Q23 before easing lower to 24,000 in 3Q23.

🇻🇳📊 Major Changes Coming to Vietnam's Corporate Tax Policy 📈💲

🎯 Starting next year, Vietnam will be implementing a 15% tax on the profits made by multinational corporations with total revenues of at least EUR750 million ($819 million) in two of the preceding four years. For over a decade, the country has been offering tax incentives to foreign direct investment (FDI) companies.

🆕 The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development ( ) has initiated a global minimum corporate income tax, which means that companies with annual revenues of EUR750 million or more will be subject to a 15% tax rate. Many countries are expected to adopt this rate from 2024 onwards.

💰 In light of this new development, industry experts are suggesting that Vietnam should focus on enhancing the business environment and improving labor standards, rather than relying on tax incentives to attract foreign investment.

🇻🇳💲 Từ năm sau, Việt Nam sẽ áp dụng mức thuế 15% đối với lợi nhuận của các tập đoàn đa quốc gia có tổng doanh thu ít nhất là 750 triệu EUR ($819 triệu) trong hai năm trước đó. Từ hơn 10 năm nay, đất nước đã cung cấp các ưu đãi thuế cho các công ty đầu tư trực tiếp nước ngoài.

🆕 Mức thuế tối thiểu toàn cầu về thu nhập doanh nghiệp, được khởi xướng bởi Tổ chức Hợp tác và Phát triển Kinh tế ( ), có nghĩa là các doanh nghiệp có doanh thu hàng năm từ 750 triệu euro trở lên sẽ chịu mức thuế 15%, với nhiều quốc gia áp dụng mức thuế này từ năm 2024 trở đi.

💰 Các chuyên gia cho rằng Việt Nam nên tập trung vào cải thiện môi trường kinh doanh và chất lượng lao động thay vì dựa vào các ưu đãi thuế để thu hút đầu tư trực tiếp nước ngoài khi mức thuế tối thiểu doanh nghiệp sắp được áp dụng.
