HÀ NỘI — Expats working in Việt Nam said they earn on average nearly US$88,100, with 36 per cent seeing their income increase by 25 per cent, the latest Expat Explorer survey compiled by HSBC Bank revealed. Nevertheless, when it comes to property ownership, only under one-fifth (18 per cent) of expats own property in Việt Nam, which is half of the global average. Forty-two per cent of expats don’t own any property either in their home country or host country. Two-thirds (67 per cent) of expats say they feel confident about the Vietnamese economy. “However, the survey suggests several areas for improvement to make Việt Nam more attractive to expats,” he added.
