[Research Contribution] Foreign preference and students’ intention to buy chinese fashion in Ho Chi Minh City

27 Dec 2025

In the context of increasingly deep economic integration, Vietnam's garment industry is facing significant competitive pressure from Chinese fashion products. With its price advantage, diverse designs, and suitability for young people's tastes, Chinese clothing quickly gained the interest of students – a customer group with high fashion needs but limited financial resources. Additionally, the mentality of valuing foreign goods still exists among a segment of consumers, making imported products more appealing and posing significant challenges for domestic garment businesses. Based on this reality, a research team from the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City (UEH) implemented a study to analyze the impact of consumer ethnocentrism on students' intention to purchase Chinese clothing products in Ho Chi Minh City.

[Research Contribution] Climate Adaptation and Ownership Structure: Determinants of Global Bank Performance

25 Dec 2025

Climate change has become a tangible reality, with profound impacts on urban life, particularly on the financial and banking markets. Faced with the risk of revenue decline or bankruptcy in climate-sensitive industries, which in turn leads to rising non-performing loans and affects financial stability, climate adaptation is both a mandatory requirement and an opportunity to reshape the banking market. Motivated by this concern, a research team from the ISB College of Talents at the University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City (UEH) analyzed data from over 6,000 global banks from 2002–2019 to assess the impact of climate adaptation readiness and the role of different ownership types on bank performance.

In the age of booming online shopping, fast and convenient delivery has become a familiar expectation of consumers.
