HCMC – The Ministry of Finance will conduct a nationwide inventory of public assets starting January 1, 2026, to assess their condition, value, and efficiency of use.
The plan, detailed in Decision No. 3531, covers assets held by state agencies, public service units, armed forces, and infrastructure funded and managed by the Government, the Vietnam News Agency reported.
The inventory aims to determine the quantity, structure, and utilization of public assets nationwide. It follows recent Government restructuring, administrative mergers, and the introduction of the two-level local government structure.
The Finance Ministry will issue guidelines, criteria, and templates for the inventory in October and November this year. Training sessions for ministries and local authorities will take place from November to December.
On-site inspections will be carried out between January and March 2026. Local agencies must submit results to the ministry by May 31, and a consolidated national report will be completed by July 2026.
The ministry said the results will help guide future state investment, budget allocation, and public asset management, supporting economic growth and sustainable development.
