Monitoring households and firms in Vietnam during COVID-19
In order to understand the impacts of COVID-19 on Vietnamese firms, the World Bank designed a Business Pulse Survey (BPS) to assess the various channels of impact of the pandemic on firms, their adjustment strategies, and public policy responses. The firm surveys are being collected by the General Statistics Office of Vietnam, under the supervision of the World Bank.
To monitor the social and economic effects on households amid the pandemic, the World Bank designed and conducted its COVID-19 High-Frequency Phone Surveys of Households in Vietnam. This monitoring data helps gather insights on household well-being as post-lockdown reopening unfolds, and to highlight the effects on the most vulnerable members of Vietnamese society. The household surveys are collected by the Mekong Development Research Institute, under the supervision of the World Bank.
