VTN AND PARTNERS SHARES INSIGHTS ON CARBON CREDIT MARKET AT GEFE 2024 Honored to have our Partner, Nguyen Thanh Nghiep, share insights at #GEFE2024 on the critical topic of "From Green to Growth: Unpacking Vietnam's Carbon Market Potential." He highlighted the complexities and regulatory hurdles businesses face especially in terms of the legal nature of carbon credit and emission allowance. Mr. Nghiep also discussed the development of a unified MRV (Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification) framework, centralized data management systems, and capacity-building initiatives to equip businesses with the necessary skills and tools. These insights are essential as Vietnam works towards building a robust and transparent carbon market, aligning with international standards, and fostering sustainable growth. We look forward to continuing to support businesses and stakeholders in navigating these challenges and contributing to a greener economy. #sustainability #carbonmarkets #VTNandPartners Green Economy Forum & Exhibition EuroCham Vietnam https://lnkd.in/gXBAbYRM

BONES OF CONTENTION UNDER THE DRAFT LAW ON PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION The Ministry of Public Security of Vietnam (MPS) has recently issued the draft of the Personal Data Protection Law to regulate matters pertaining to the safeguarding of personal data. In general, this draft offers a comprehensive legal framework and guidelines regarding the data protection matter in Vietnam and MPS’s endeavors to contribute to data safety. However, it presents several ambiguities that require careful scrutiny and amendment in future versions. While many provisions remain consistent with Decree 13, such as the 11 rights of data subjects, privacy notices, and consent requirements, there are multiple areas that demand further clarification: #data #protection #law #Vietnam #lawfirm #VTN

INTRODUCTORY PROPOSAL FOR DATA TRADING PLATFORM UNDER DRAFT DATA LAW To attain the goals of Digital Government, Digital Economy, and Digital Society, the synchronous development of data systems has become a priority in the current period. In February 2024, the Prime Minister approved the National Data Strategy until 2030, which aims to complete the pilot and testing of 05 data trading platforms nationwide. In line with this strategy, the Ministry of Public Security has proposed the Data Law draft which specifies the establishment and operation of the data trading platform in Vietnam. Data trading platform is defined as an online exchange platform that creates a data trading environment with supervision to ensure safety and compliance and develops data services such as data aggregation, analysis, and labeling. The main function of the data trading platform is to trade, exchange, purchase, sell, and provide products and services related to data in a suitable, accurate, and lawful manner to clients.

ONLINE ARBITRATION UNDER VIETNAMESE LAW In Vietnam, the implementation of national digital transformation has been a strongly promoted initiative by the government. Especially, following the COVID-19 pandemic, online transactions have been robustly deployed and have gradually become a prevailing trend. Similar to traditional transactions, electronic transactions require certain elements to ensure their formation and performance, an effective dispute-resolution mechanism must be established to address potential issues that may arise along the way. Online dispute resolution methods, including online arbitration, will serve as a suitable mechanism for resolving disputes. #arbitration #law #Vietnam #VTN VTN and Partners
