Currently, savings interest rates in Vietnam are showing a slight upward trend. According to statistics, 12-month deposit interest rates at commercial banks range from 4.7% to 6.3% per year, depending on the bank and the deposit term.
Economic experts predict that deposit interest rates will continue to increase slightly in 2025. VNDIRECT Securities Company predicts that the average 12-month deposit interest rate will increase by about 0.3 percentage points, reaching 5.2-5.3%/year by the end of 2025.
Similarly, Tien Phong Securities Company (TPS) believes that deposit interest rates may increase until the end of this year and stabilize or increase slightly in 2025, with differentiation among banks; small-scale banks may apply higher interest rates to attract customers.
Mr. Can Van Luc, Chief Economist of BIDV, said that the increase in savings interest rates will put pressure on lending interest rates. Currently, the slight increase in savings interest rates at some private banks is also putting pressure on lending interest rates.
