Vietnam's economy is small, its people are poor and its infrastructure is fragile. The country's industries are still largely run by central planners. Yet, at this moment, Vietnam just may be one of the world's most attractive new opportunities for financial services companies.

Part of the appeal of Vietnam's banking sector lies in the rapid pace of change.
