The State Bank of Vietnam has issued Circular No. 55/2026/TT-NHNN, amending Circular No. 18/2025/TT-NHNN on collecting, exploiting, sharing and reporting information for the supervision system of people's credit funds and microfinance institutions. The key change is a new clause 4 in Article 8, which allows depositors at people's credit funds to look up information about their own deposits while keeping personal information confidential. If the lookup results do not match, customers must provide the information to the regional State Bank branch, which will verify and handle it under the law. The circular also clarifies the scope of information shared with the Co-operative Bank of Vietnam and Vietnam Deposit Insurance, and requires recipients to use the data only for its stated purpose. The circular was issued on 12/10/2026 and takes effect from 26/11/2026.

- State Bank of Vietnam asks banks to monitor and reassess collateral values in line with market prices
The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) has asked credit institutions to value collateral closer to market prices, regularly reassess it, and closely monitor its condition throughout loan terms, taking timely action if values fall. Under document No. 9608/NHNN-CSTT dated 18/10/2026, outright purchases of letter-of-credit documents without recourse must be risk-controlled like other lending and count against the SBV-set maximum 2026 credit balance. Banks must also tighten loan classification and provisioning, avoid concealing bad debt, and pay special attention to banks with high or rising bad debt. Other directives include controlling accrued interest receivable and dividend payouts, and reducing reliance on net interest income.

- JPMorgan (JPM): Can New Branches Keep Winning Profitable Customers?
JPMorgan is expanding branches as rivals also invest in their networks, and the article argues the challenge is retaining deposits without overpaying while earning enough from each relationship to cover acquisition and servicing costs. JPMorgan trades at 13x forward P/E, and its Q2 EPS was $7.70, or $6.14 excluding significant securities gains. Analysts expect roughly 4% adjusted EPS growth in 2027 versus 2026, compared with 14% for peer Bank of America (BAC), which trades at 10x forward P/E. JPMorgan attributes about 40% of its deposit-share gains since 2019 to new branches, and says 90% of its first-time wealth investors in 2025 came through branch referrals. However, national retail deposit share slipped to 11.1% in 2025, and average Business Banking loans fell 5% in Q2 2026.
- Bank of America (BAC): Is Its Deposit Franchise Getting Stronger as Lending Accelerates?
Bank of America's average loans rose 8% year over year in the second quarter, faster than the 2% growth in deposits, with consumer balances up about 1% versus 8% in Global Banking. Net interest income still increased 9%. Average Consumer Banking deposits reached $957 billion, up from $950.8 billion in the first quarter, while the rate paid on them fell to 0.48% from 0.58% a year earlier. The bank estimates that 92% of consumer checking accounts are customers' primary accounts, which the article says gives customers reasons to stay. Global Banking deposits paid 2.23%, and the article notes faster growth in that category could increase sensitivity to interest rates. The stock trades at about 11x forward P/E versus 13x trailing.
- Foreign banks play it safe with low - cost deposits , careful lending
Data from Bangladesh Bank shows nine foreign commercial banks held Tk 87,378 crore in deposits as of June 2026, with current and savings accounts making up 37.5% and fixed deposits just 14%. This low-cost funding, combined with lending mainly to large, well-rated corporations and multinationals, has helped them keep healthy profit margins. However, their net profit fell by Tk 1,417 crore from Tk 3,738 crore in July–December 2025. Their non-performing loan ratio rose to 6.5% in June 2026 from 5.9% in December 2025, though it remains well below the industry average. Loans of Tk 48,700 crore remain concentrated in industry and trade, and their capital adequacy ratio stood at 41.21%.
- Bank deposits hit a record high, mainly from individuals
Customer deposits at credit institutions reached about VND 17.77 quadrillion at end-August, up nearly VND 1.26 quadrillion from end-2025 and 11% year on year. Resident deposits reached about VND 11.43 quadrillion, the highest level on record, lifting their share of total deposits to about 64.34%, while corporate deposits stood at about VND 6.34 quadrillion. SSI Research attributes the growth to higher savings rates, with some private banks offering 7-9% a year on certain terms, faster public investment disbursement, and less attractive alternatives such as real estate, gold, foreign currency and digital assets. The firm says liquidity pressure should be watched in the fourth quarter, when year-end credit demand typically rises.

- Paying Tax on Revenue: What Do Household Businesses Expect?
A draft Law on Small and Medium-sized Enterprise Development would let individual businesses with annual revenue of up to 10 billion VND choose to pay tax based on a percentage of revenue or on taxable income. The option is slated to apply from the 2026 tax period, although the law is expected to take effect on July 1, 2027. Household businesses welcome the change as it could ease pressure from bookkeeping, invoices and accounting costs, but many remain unsure how to determine deductible expenses. Ms. Lê Yến of Hanoitax proposes extending the option to businesses with revenue above 1 billion VND and below 10 billion VND, while Mr. Lê Văn Tuấn of Keytas asks for the new threshold to apply from 2026. According to the Ministry of Finance, over 2.69 million household businesses nationwide have annual revenue of no more than 10 billion VND, accounting for 99.98% of all household businesses.
- Why Intel Stock Popped Today
Intel shares (INTC) rose 4% on Monday after a bullish note from New Street Research analyst Pierre Ferragu and an acquisition announcement. Ferragu sees the stock rising 38% to $125, citing growing interest in agentic AI and persistent supply constraints for server CPUs. He expects Intel to increase server capacity by over 50% in 2027, with data center and AI revenue potentially exceeding Wall Street estimates, and projects server CPU sales reaching $50 billion by 2030 in a market above $220 billion. He estimates Intel could earn $7.10 per share by then, versus consensus of about $1.50 in 2026. After the market close, Intel also agreed to acquire quantum computing software developer Classiq to help scale its quantum computing platforms.

- Anthropic's Billions in Microsoft Commitments Add to Its Mounting Compute Bill
According to its S-1 filing, Anthropic will spend at least 44.9 billion USD with Microsoft between November 2026 and May 2033, regardless of usage, and the agreement is mostly non-cancellable. It has also committed 114.5 billion USD with Alphabet, 110 billion USD with Amazon through 2036, and about 3.1 billion USD per month with Space Exploration Technologies (SPCX) through 2029.

In the first half of the year, the company reported an 80.7 billion USD GAAP loss, mostly tied to changes in the valuation of its convertible debt, and spent nearly 9 billion USD on compute and infrastructure.
- China and Russia are redrawing Arctic trade. Can Europe fight back?
China and Russia have agreed to expand freight traffic along Arctic shipping corridors, boost port-to-port services and deepen cooperation on building polar vessels, shortly after the EU unveiled a new Arctic strategy to counter their growing influence. Analysts say Europe's ability to challenge the partnership is limited, since Moscow controls the Northern Sea Route and Beijing supplies cargo, vessels and industrial capacity. The route could cut Asia–Europe transit to 18 to 22 days, about 35% less than the 28 to 35 days via Suez. Arctic trade still accounts for roughly 0.3% of global shipping, with 37.02 million tonnes transiting the Northern Sea Route in 2025, and Roche estimates it could reach about 1% by 2030. Experts say the EU's leverage lies in expanding icebreaker capacity and maritime surveillance, but that this is not enough to reverse the structural advantages of Moscow and Beijing.
