For 6-9 months, Vietcombank's 3% per year is below the 3.5% offered by the other three. From 12 months up, BIDV and VietinBank stay higher, at 5.9% for 12 months and 6% for 24 and 36 months, while Vietcombank offers 4.8% for 36 months.

- Bank with the largest customer deposits cuts savings interest rates
- Banks begin sharp cuts to deposit rates across many terms on the afternoon of October 19
The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) asked credit institutions to cut deposit rates by at least 0.5% a year for terms of 6 months or longer, and lending rates by 1.5-2% a year for production, business and priority sectors, while avoiding competitive rate hikes. LPBank cut deposit rates across all terms from 1 to 36 months, with its online 12-month rate now at 6.7% a year and 48-60 month rates at 5.2%. VietBank lowered online rates by 0.5 percentage points for terms of 6 to 36 months, bringing its 6-8 month rate to 5.4% a year. The central bank warned that banks failing to cut rates may face a review of their remaining credit quotas this year, lower targets next year, or higher safety ratios.
- Governor: 'Rate cuts must target the right recipients, prioritising production and business'
Governor Phạm Đức Ấn asked banks to cut lending rates selectively, prioritising production and business loans and considering existing debt, not just new loans. Average lending rates rose 0.2 percentage points to 10.7% in August, about 3 points higher than a year earlier, while legacy floating-rate personal loans reached 12-14%. Banks must cut deposit rates by at least 0.5% for terms of 6 months and above, and on 19/10 BVBank, LPBank and Vietbank published new rates below 7% a year. BIDV offers loans from 6% a year, Vietcombank pledged to cut lending rates by at least 2 percentage points by year-end, and Sacombank launched a 40,000 billion VND package. The State Bank will closely monitor rates and stands ready to support banks' liquidity, as rate hikes by the Fed, ECB and BOJ in September pressure emerging economies.
- Interest rates on October 18 at VPBank, Techcombank, Sacombank, HDBank, Agribank, Vietcombank, BIDV, VietinBank, MB,...
An online survey of deposit rates at 35 banks on October 18 shows Sacombank offering the highest 12-month rate at 7.5% per year, while VPBank leads the 18-month term at 7.9% per year. Agribank, BIDV, Vietcombank and VietinBank all list 6.8% per year for 12 months. At the other end, SCB offers the lowest rates in the list, at 3.7% for 12 months and 3.9% for 18 months. The article puts the gap between the highest and lowest 12-month rates at 3.8 percentage points, and between the highest and lowest 18-month rates at 4 percentage points.
- On October 18, how much interest will 100 million VND earn after 12 months at ACB, MB, VPBank, Techcombank and SHB?
A rate survey on October 18 shows that depositing 100 million VND for 12 months at ACB, MB, VPBank, Techcombank and SHB yields interest that varies considerably by bank and deposit channel. At the counter, VPBank lists the highest rate at 6.9% per year (6.9 million VND in interest), MB and SHB both offer 6.2%, Techcombank offers 6.05% (for regular customers with balances under 1 billion VND), and ACB has the lowest at 5.3% (5.3 million VND). Online, VPBank again leads at 7.1% per year (7.1 million VND), followed by Techcombank at 6.75%, SHB at 6.5%, MB at 6.3% and ACB at 5.7%. The article assumes interest is paid at maturity, the full 12-month term is completed, and there is no early withdrawal, and it notes that actual rates may change.
- Deposit rates on 16/10 at MB, VPBank, Techcombank, Sacombank, HDBank, Agribank, Vietcombank, BIDV, VietinBank,...
A survey of online deposit rates at 35 banks on 16/10 shows rates vary clearly by term. VPBank posts the highest 18-month rate at 7.9% per year, while Sacombank leads the 12-month (7.5%) and 6-month (7.2%) terms. For 3-month deposits, most banks list 4.75% per year, while SCB is lowest at 1.9%. Sacombank's 12-month rate is 3.8 percentage points above SCB's 3.7%, the lowest for that term. For the same deposit amount and term, this gap could mean a significant difference in the interest customers earn.

- BlackRock seeks to shield bitcoin investors from losses after rival fund weathers 50% crash
BlackRock filed on Monday for the iShares Bitcoin Managed Protect ETF, which would offer bitcoin upside exposure while seeking to limit losses when the cryptocurrency falls. A similar Calamos fund, CBOO, dropped just 1% since October 2025, even as bitcoin tumbled as much as 52% from its record high of roughly $126,000. BlackRock's filing did not say how much downside protection or upside the new fund would offer, and the fund would build on its iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), which manages more than $65 billion. Calamos holds roughly 90% of its funds in U.S. Treasuries and uses the rest for bitcoin-linked options, a structure that caps gains while limiting losses over a set period.
