According to the online interest rate schedule on the first day of the week, December 25, Vietcombank reduced 0.3 percentage points for deposit terms from 1 month to 11 months.
Accordingly, the interest rate for 1 and 2 month terms is only 1.9%/year, 3-5 month terms is only 2.2%/year, and 6-11 month terms is only 3.2%/year.
This is an unprecedented low deposit interest rate, even far from the expected inflation rate of 4.5% in 2023 and the ceiling interest rate of 4.75%/year prescribed by the State Bank.
Vietcombank maintains 4.8%/year for deposits with terms from 12 to 24 months. This is also the highest savings interest rate at this bank at the present time.
After this adjustment, Vietcombank continues to hold the top position in paying the lowest deposit interest rates in the market.
Previously, Agribank also reduced deposit interest rates twice since the beginning of the month, while VietinBank and BIDV have only adjusted once.
Currently, the interest rates of the Big4 group have an insignificant difference, except for the interest rate at Vietcombank.
Agribank is applying 2.2%/year for 1-2 month term deposits, 2.5%/year for 3-5 month term deposits; 3.6%/year for 6-9 month term deposits; 5.5%/year for 12-18 month term deposits and 5.5%/year for 24 month term deposits.
Meanwhile, interest rates for 1-5 month terms at BIDV and VietinBank are equal, from 2.6-3%/year.
For term deposits from 6 to 11 months, BIDV and VietinBank are slightly better than the other two banks in the Big4 group with an interest rate of 4%/year.
For term deposit interest rates from 24 to 36 months, BIDV and VietinBank are applying an interest rate of 5.3%/year.
Except for Vietcombank, the remaining banks did not have any adjustments in deposit interest rates on the first day of the week.

According to VietNamNet statistics, since the beginning of the month, 21 banks have reduced deposit interest rates: HDBank, Techcombank, Eximbank, KienLongBank, SCB, PGBank, MB, MSB, NamA Bank, ABBank, Vietcombank, BIDV, VIB, VPBank, TPBank, Saigonbank, VietBank, ACB, VietinBank, Agribank, LPBank.
Of which, MB, Eximbank, SCB, Techcombank, VPBank, KienlongBank, Agribank, Vietcombank are the banks that have reduced interest rates twice since the beginning of the month.
Notably, BIDV and VPBank have adjusted their deposit interest rates down three times this month, while VIB has reduced its interest rates four times.
Talking to VietNamNet , stock analyst Tong Minh Tuan said that commercial banks still have room to continue reducing interest rates.
According to Mr. Tuan, although the mobilization interest rate is at a low level, the demand of the economy is still weak. The demand for capital is only tense in debt restructuring activities, especially real estate.
Meanwhile, in the manufacturing sector, the decline in investment demand in the domestic and international markets has led to a decrease in credit demand in most sectors, causing banks' demand for mobilization to also decrease. That is why interest rates still have room to be lowered further.
In addition, the FED has stopped raising interest rates and forecasts that there will be further monetary easing next year, which will eliminate the need for exchange rate tensions. This will create ample room for the State Bank of Vietnam to continue to lower interest rates, giving commercial banks room to reduce deposit interest rates.
