VND2.57 quadrillion deposited at listed banks

Institutions and individuals deposited some VND2.57 quadrillion (US$113.2 billion) at eight listed commercial banks by the end of 2016.

 

The listed banks include BIDV, Vietcombank, VietinBank and ACB, as well as MBBank, Eximbank, VIB and NCB.

The amount of money was equal to 1.5 times of the country’s stock market capitalisation.

The interest rate for dollar deposits was commonly zero per cent for individuals and economic institutions.

According to the current legal regulations, depositors do not have to pay income tax.
