Bank interest rates: Increasing rapidly, a series of milestones from 8% appear

Interest rates remain stable

Economists predict that banks will maintain stable deposit interest rates, with a slight increase of about 0.2%/year by the end of the year. This is largely due to the stability of the economy and control of inflation, combined with the fact that international central banks, such as the US Federal Reserve, have reduced interest rates, creating little pressure on domestic interest rates.

In addition, although large banks may not change their interest rates much, some small banks may still maintain higher interest rates to attract customers. This creates differentiation between banks and allows depositors to choose savings products with higher interest rates from small banks, even though the difference is not too large.

While the general trend is for interest rates to remain stable, if the economy recovers strongly or there is a surge in credit growth, there could be slight adjustments in interest rates in 2025.

However, up to now, savings interest rates are still at a reasonable level and bring stable profits to depositors in the short term.
