- Bank charter capital crown set to change hands: One bank poised to overtake MB and VPBank, leaving Vietcombank, VietinBank, BIDV and Agribank far behind
Techcombank has set October 30, 2026 as the final registration date for its stock dividend at a 50% ratio, under which shareholders holding 100 shares receive 50 new shares. The bank plans to issue over 3.543 billion shares, worth more than VND 35,431 billion at par value, funded by 2025 undistributed profit, raising its charter capital from VND 70,862.4 billion to about VND 106,293.6 billion. If completed, this would put Techcombank ahead of MB (VND 100,687 billion) and VPBank (VND 100,000 billion) as the largest charter capital in the system, and an ESOP issuance could bring the total close to VND 106,600 billion. Such increases help banks strengthen financial capacity and add room to meet capital-safety requirements as credit demand expands.
- Techcombank Named “Best Bank in Vietnam” for Third Straight Year by Global Finance, Extending “Hat-trick” From Three Prestigious Global Institutions
Techcombank has received the “Best Bank in Vietnam 2026” award from Global Finance at the World’s Best Banks Awards ceremony held on the sidelines of the IMF/World Bank Annual Meetings in Bangkok, marking the third consecutive year it has earned a hat-trick of top honors from three international institutions. It is the only Vietnamese bank on the World’s Best Banks 2026 list. In the first nine months of 2026, pre-tax profit reached VND 28.9 trillion, up 23.7%, including a record quarterly pre-tax profit of VND 10.4 trillion in Q3, driven by a 40% rise in service income. Its NPL ratio was around 1.26% and its CAR 15%, and its charter capital increase to VND 106,593 billion was approved. The bank serves 19.1 million customers, with a BEI of 3.8 and an NPS of 98 in Q3.
- What Does the Race to Raise Capital Above 100,000 Billion VND Mean for Banks?
Several Vietnamese banks are raising charter capital above 100,000 billion VND, which could strengthen financial capacity, credit expansion and technology investment. On October 13, the State Bank of Vietnam approved Techcombank's increase of up to 35,731 billion VND; if completed, its charter capital could reach about 106,593 billion VND, the highest in the system and ahead of MB and VPBank. MB has raised its capital to 100,687 billion VND and VPBank to 100,000 billion VND, and VPBank also plans to privately place over 624 million shares with a foreign investor, which would lift its capital to about 106,244 billion VND. State-owned banks VietinBank, Vietcombank and BIDV also aim to boost capital. Experts say larger capital only matters if it is used effectively, alongside strict control of asset quality and risk.

- Oil Prices Could Become a Political Danger as Trump's Fixes Keep Making Things Messier
As the midterm elections approach, U.S. diesel prices remain near record highs, putting political pressure on President Trump in farm states such as Iowa and Kansas. According to the EIA, diesel rose nearly 10 cents per gallon in the latest week to an average of 6.28 dollars a gallon, and nearly 80% of Americans in a Reuters/Ipsos poll held Trump responsible for rising prices. Trump signed an executive order allowing dyed diesel on highways, announced an 8 billion dollar farm aid package, and pressed European allies to release emergency reserves, but the IRS only temporarily waived reporting requirements and penalties without removing the federal tax, leaving truck stops unclear on compliance. Government farm payments are expected to exceed 47 billion dollars this year, and the new package would lift total aid to a record 55.4 billion dollars, above 45 billion in 2020. The White House blamed high prices on longstanding problems such as refinery closures and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, while a pollster quoted in the article doubted the measures would bring any real short-term benefit.
- Trump warns of fresh military strikes on Iran
US President Donald Trump warned that American forces could carry out another round of military strikes on Iran if Tehran fails to reach an agreement with Washington. Speaking at a Republican campaign rally in Fort Myers, Florida, he said “we may do another little Epic Fury, or they'll agree,” and claimed that Operations Midnight Hammer and Epic Fury had obliterated Iran's nuclear enrichment capacity and weakened its military and economy. Trump said the conflict would end “one way or another, through agreement or otherwise,” but gave no timetable and did not outline the conditions Iran would need to meet. He maintained that preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons remained the overriding objective of the campaign. He also claimed the US Navy was enforcing a blockade against Iran around the Strait of Hormuz, while oil shipments through the waterway had increased.

According to The Economist, citing Ukrainian officials, the US has reportedly proposed new terms for a peace deal to end the Russia-Ukraine conflict: Ukraine would drop its bid to join NATO, establish a demilitarized zone in Donbass, and restore the Nord Stream pipeline. In return, Russia would receive eased sanctions and resumed gas supplies to Europe, while Ukraine would get an “investment package” and EU membership. Neither Russia nor Ukraine has commented. The Kremlin said Putin sent no settlement documents via US envoy Steve Witkoff, but presidential aide Yury Ushakov said Russia is ready to resume trilateral talks with the US and Ukraine within the first 10 days of November, focusing on post-conflict security. Alexander Gusarov of Russia’s Foreign Ministry said Moscow has no doubt about Trump’s goodwill, but warned that US political and partisan dynamics could significantly affect Congress’s Russia agenda, including the sanctions bill known as the “Lindsey Graham Act”.
