32W26: Interbank rates ease as SBV expands net injection
32W26: Interbank rates ease as SBV expands net injectionDuring 32W26, the SBV expanded its net liquidity injection into the banking system via open market operations, continuing to offer longer-term repo tenors to address persistent short-term tightness. Following the central bank's liquidity support, interbank rates declined sharply across most tenors. On the FX front, the domestic USDVND exchange rate dropped significantly by 0.35% WoW to 26,205, aligned with a weaker U.S. dollar following weak U.S. labor data and a reversal to net buying by foreign investors on the HoSE after a 20-week selling streak.PDFFI-32W26-Eng

31W26: SBV returns to net injection amidst interbank rate surgeDuring 31W26, the SBV returned to a net liquidity injection via open market operations after three consecutive weeks of net withdrawal, introducing multiple longer-term repo tenors to support commercial banks amidst rising funding demand. Short-term interbank rates surged sharply, reflecting re-emerging short-term liquidity pressures across the banking system. On the FX front, the domestic USDVND exchange rate registered a slight decrease of 0.11% WoW to 26,296, aligned with the weakening U.S. dollar as diplomatic de-escalation efforts in the Middle East helped pull back crude oil prices. However, domestic downside momentum was constrained by persistent foreign net selling on the HoSE and ongoing trade deficit pressures.PDFFI-31W26-Eng

7M26: Solid growth momentum amid external headwinds
7M26: Solid growth momentum amid external headwindsThe second half of 2026 began on a positive note despite persistent external uncertainties, as Vietnam’s economic activity maintained solid momentum. Growth was supported by steady retail sales during the peak summer tourism season, accelerating industrial production, and further moderation in CPI inflation driven by sharp drops in domestic fuel prices. On the trade front, the trade deficit widened as import growth outpaced exports. Looking ahead, near-term exports face potential risks from US Section 301 tariff adjustments, while import cost pressures will depend on Middle East geopolitical dynamics. Regarding foreign direct investment, newly registered capital served as the main highlight, expanding to roughly four times the level recorded in the same period last year, which bodes well for sustained disbursement and industrial expansion in the future.PDFMacro-7M26-Eng-Final

On the FX front, the domestic USDVND exchange rate advanced for a second straight week, rising 0.13% WoW to 26,324 under the combined pressure of persistent foreign equity selling and a resilient global greenback fueled by Middle East geopolitical risks.PDFFI-30W26-Eng_1

Short-term interbank rates (overnight to two-week) declined further, reflecting easing liquidity pressures following the implementation of new liquidity ratio regulations. Meanwhile, longer-tenor rates stayed relatively elevated, indicating tighter funding conditions over longer maturities. On the FX front, USDVND rose marginally by 0.08% compared to the last week to 26,290, mainly due to persistent foreign net equity outflows despite continued weakness in the global U.S. dollar.PDFFI-29W26-Eng-1

Meanwhile, in the FX market, the domestic interbank USDVND rate edged down to 26,269 despite persistent foreign net selling on the HoSE and hawkish Fed minutes put broader pressure on the currency.PDFFI-28W26-Eng

27W26: SBV maintains net injection while diverging interbank ratesIn 27W26, the SBV continued its net liquidity injection to ease surging pressures in the overnight segment, driven by short-term swap maturities during the week. Concurrently, interbank rates diverged as a spike in immediate cash demand pushed overnight rates sharply higher. In the FX market, the interbank USDVND rate remained virtually unchanged, staying resilient against persistent foreign net selling as a softer global greenback helped alleviate broader depreciation pressures.PDFFI-27W26-Eng

6M26: A strong quarter amid turbulence
6M26: A strong quarter amid turbulenceThe second quarter of 2026 ended on a positive note despite a volatile external backdrop, with Vietnam’s real GDP expanding by 8.39% YoY. Growth was supported by resilient retail sales, robust industrial production and impressive FDI performance in both registered and disbursed capital. While geopolitical tensions briefly reignited concerns over global inflation, logistics costs and supply chain disruptions, inflation pressure eased as stress moderated. Nevertheless, unresolved conflict risks, potential trade balance pressure and the ability of domestic growth engines, especially public investment, to sustain momentum will remain key questions for the second half of 2026, particularly as Vietnam continues to pursue its double digit growth ambition.PDFMacro-6M26-Eng-Final_1
