On July 29th, 2014, following the upgrade of the Government of Vietnam and sovereign ceiling, BIDV is one out of two banks to have its long-term deposit and issuer ratings upgraded by one notch by Moody’s. Other ratings are affirmed.
Moody’s recognizes Vietnam’s emerging track record of macroeconomic stability, its strengthened balance of payments and the external payments position, and the easing of contingent risks from the banking sector. As a result, Vietnam Government expresses stronger capacity to provide extraordinary support to BIDV – a systemically important bank in Vietnam.
