This study examines the financial implications of carbon pricing on high-emission sectors in Vietnam,
including manufacturing, textiles, energy, and cement. Using a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium
(DSGE) model, the study finds that carbon pricing leads to increased operational costs and short-term
declines in profitability, particularly in the energy and cement sectors, while simultaneously encouraging
investment in clean technologies. However, smaller firms face greater financial constraints compared to
larger firms. Complementary qualitative insights reveal concerns about declining international
competitiveness in export-oriented industries and emphasize the need for stronger government support. The
study concludes that although carbon pricing is effective in reducing emissions, its overall success depends
on supportive policies to ensure a balanced and sustainable transition to a low-carbon economy.
