ABN Asia Featured in Regional Coverage on Vietnam’s New Data Rules

Recently, ABN Asia was featured in an international news report by The Business Times, which examined how Vietnam’s tightening data-protection regulations are reshaping the country’s digital economy.

The article highlights the impact of Vietnam’s new Personal Data Protection framework, which requires stricter user consent and greater transparency in how organisations collect and use data. The policy shift is forcing companies across banking, technology and digital services to redesign customer journeys, analytics practices and platform architecture.

ABN Asia was quoted alongside several notable organisations, placing its perspective within a broader industry discussion. These included:

Techcombank – One of Vietnam’s leading private banks, which shared how consent-driven engagement is changing the way financial institutions use customer data.
AesirX.io – A privacy-technology firm whose CEO discussed the operational changes companies must make to comply with the new rules.
Henrison Law – A Ho Chi Minh City–based legal practice that provided regulatory perspective on the broader business implications.

In the same coverage, Nguyen Son, Vice-President of ABN Asia, emphasised the strategic opportunity behind stronger data governance. He noted that interoperable and verifiable digital data — across identity, transactions and business activity — could help formalise parts of the informal economy, expand the tax base and create a more level competitive environment.

The article also referenced major platforms such as Zalo and national initiatives like the VNeID digital identity system, illustrating the scale of transformation underway.

Being featured alongside major financial institutions, technology providers and legal experts positions ABN Asia as one of the industry voices contributing to the conversation at a pivotal moment for Vietnam’s digital-services landscape.
