Purpose for Loan

Source of Loan: Half from Banks / Half from friends / relatives

Personal debt continues to grow, as the good times roll. Caution - any economic down turn could be fatal for some, while reasons for loan are more and more about personal fulfillment, than investments.

PREDICTIONS

Consumer psychology - 2019

Consumer priorities More about personal growth

than material growth

2019 will see a shift in consumerism from “keeping up with the Nguyen’s” to “self actualization” via new experiences. Spend will be less about Material objects and more about life experiences.

The Basics are mostly achieved

2019 Predictions

Positives

1Consumer confidence is still very high, hence driving positive growth in 2019, but there are signs of slowdown beyond this year

2Any service / product providing entertainment, convenience and pleasure will see growth

3 All things digital continue to grow – convenience driven

Negatives

1 Real estate market will begin to slow down in 2019

2 All basic home care / improvements, utilities & transport should decline in growth3 Private dept will continue to grow & be a major threat if inflation goes rampant

4 Potential erosion of Vietnamese brands due to value for money and quality issues
