SBV returns to net liquidity injection amid cooling interbank rates

In 10W26, the SBV returned to a net liquidity injection by rolling over repo contracts to prevent system tightening, while interbank rates eased as funding demand stabilized. On the FX front, USDVND climbed as the greenback regained strength amid escalating Middle East conflicts and renewed tariff concerns. Globally, the dollar was supported by safe haven demand as inflation risks remained elevated, leading the market to continue to expect the Fed to hold interest rates steady in the upcoming meeting despite a softer labor market. Domestically, the exchange rate faced additional pressure from sustained foreign capital outflows on the equity market, pushing both bank and shadow market rates higher.
