Compared with the beginning of the year, household deposits increased by about VND491 trillion, or 4.76 percent.
The continued growth comes as deposit interest rates have trended upward since late 2025, helping attract funds back into the banking system.
Corporate and institutional deposits also increased during the month. Businesses deposited an additional VND94 trillion in May, bringing total outstanding deposits to nearly VND6.17 quadrillion. However, compared with the end of 2025, corporate deposits remained about VND12 trillion lower, representing a decline of 0.2 percent.
Overall, total money supply in the economy, excluding valuable papers, reached more than VND19.974 quadrillion at the end of May 2026, up about VND156 trillion from the previous month.
Compared with the end of 2025, total money supply expanded by 2.73 percent, equivalent to more than VND530 trillion.
