Article Abstract:

There has been criticism of International Finance Corp. (IFC) investments in Vietnam, which do not appear to be favouring private sector ventures. According to Jannik Lindbaek, executive vice-president of the bank, which has just invested in the extension of the Sofitel Metropole Hotel in Hanoi, Vietnam, IFC is restricted by the Vietnamese government, which is not keen on uncontrolled growth in the private sector. Additionally, there are few Vietnamese private firms with large enough projects.
