USD/VND exchange rate may fluctuate within 2% this year

The US Fed officially raising interest rates by 0.75 percentage points, the difference in the gold price between Vietnam and the world remaining high, and the supply of foreign currency not being favorable compared to previous years count among reasons why the VND may depreciate this year. The Vietcombank Securities Company (VCBS) believes the USD/VND exchange rate will increase in 2022 by within 2 per cent, while the Bao Viet Securities Company (BVSC) believes the State Bank of Vietnam still needs to control the exchange rate so that the VND does not depreciate too much.
