Thuận Hiền |

ABBank reduced online interest rates by 0.1%/year for many terms, while VietABank and Eximbank introduced new savings products.

The savings deposit market recorded new changes on August 11, 2025, in which An Binh Commercial Joint Stock Bank (ABBank) unexpectedly adjusted to reduce online deposit interest rates by 0.1%/year for all terms from 1 to 60 months. This is the first time ABBank has changed the interest rate table since mid-March 2025, after 5 months of staying unchanged.

According to the new table, the 1-month term interest rate is only 3.1%/year; the 2-month term decreased to 3.3%/year; the 3-5 month terms decreased to 3.8%/year. 6-month term applies 5.3%/year; 7-11 month and 13-15 month terms are at 5.4%/year. The 12-month term alone is still the highest rate in the online deposit group at ABBank at 5.6%/year. The 24 - 60-month terms are all listed at 5.3%/year.

At the transaction counter, ABBank did not adjust the interest rate table, but the current application rate is 0.1 percentage point lower than online deposits. Specifically, the 1-month term deposit is 3%/year; 2 months is 3.2%/year; 3 - 5 months is 3.7%/year; 6 months is 5.2%/year; 7 - 12 months and 13 - 18 months are all at 5.3%/year; 24 - 60 months are maintained at 5.2%/year.

Notably, ABBank still maintains the system's highest "special interest rate" of 9.65%/year for customers depositing for a 13-month term with a balance of VND 1,500 billion or more. If you deposit below this level, the interest rate will be only 5.3%/year.

In parallel with ABBank, the market recorded a number of banks launching new products to attract cash flow. VietABank has just added two new savings packages: Dac Loc Savings (highest interest rate 6.3%/year) and Dac Loi Savings (highest 6.4%/year). The bank's Dac Tai Savings product still holds a maximum interest rate of 6.8%/year for an 18-month term.

Eximbank also expanded the product "Combo Casa" for Infinite customers to deposit online, with the highest interest rate of 6%/year for terms of 18 - 36 months.

According to statistics on August 11, the "Big 4" group of state-owned banks (Agribank, BIDV, VietinBank, Vietcombank) continues to have the lowest online deposit interest rates in the market, ranging from 1.6 - 4.8%/year depending on the term. On the contrary, some small banks such as GPBank, Vikki Bank, MBV, VietBank... still maintain the ceiling of 5.9 - 6%/year for long terms.
