Interest rate forecast in the coming time
Deposit interest rates are fluctuating slightly, depending on the capital mobilization needs of each bank. However, with the inspection move from the SBV, the possibility of interest rates continuing to increase sharply in the coming time is not high.
The flow of deposits into banks is still increasing, showing people's cautious psychology in the face of complicated developments in the financial market.
