Update news interest rates
The State Bank of Vietnam is tightening control over interest rates, requiring banks to lower lending costs while cracking down on unfair financial competition.
Several commercial banks have started reducing deposit interest rates by 0.1 to 0.4 percentage points in response to the Prime Minister’s direction to lower rates to help achieve the Government’s 8% growth target in 2025.
Vietnam’s commercial banks respond to the government’s call to stabilize deposit interest rates and lower lending rates, ensuring economic growth and inflation control.
An economist said the approach helps ensure that businesses have access to affordable capital, which in turn supports job creation and economic recovery.
