Decision Lab, the exclusive partner of YouGov in Vietnam, has released the Decision Lab Bank Satisfaction Rankings 2023. The report ranks the top 10 banks in Vietnam based on how satisfied their customers are with their services. According to the ranking, Vietcombank is the most satisfying bank in Vietnam, followed by BIDV and Techcombank.
The ranking is derived from the positive satisfaction metric of the YouGov BrandIndex solution, a syndicated brand tracker that collects daily data on over 400 brands in Vietnam. This results from over 40,000 interviews conducted via the tool within two years.
Customer satisfaction is a critical factor for the success and growth of any banking operation. It affects the loyalty, retention, and profitability of the customers. Satisfied customers are more likely to purchase additional products and services from their bank, such as credit cards, loans, or insurance. They are also more likely to recommend their bank to others, which can generate positive word-of-mouth and attract new customers.
The Decision Lab Bank Satisfaction Rankings 2023 is a valuable resource for customers looking for banks with a proven track record of delivering exceptional customer experiences. Leveraging the power of satisfaction can help banks establish a loyal customer base, increase brand awareness, and drive business growth.
The ranking shows that Vietcombank is the most satisfying bank in Vietnam, with a score of 86.2, which jumped from the 4th position in the same period last year. This means that 86.2% of Vietcombank’s customers were satisfied with their bank.

However, there were also some drastic changes in the ranking among banks, showing how competitive this market is.
