Recently, Fortune magazine (U.S.) released the 2026 Fortune Southeast Asia 500 list, honoring the 500 largest companies in the Southeast Asian region by revenue. The Joint Stock Commercial Bank for Investment and Development of Vietnam (BIDV) has made the list for the third consecutive year, while maintaining its position as the leader in Vietnam’s banking sector.

The Fortune Southeast Asia 500 is an annual ranking compiled by Fortune, based on revenue from the most recent fiscal year. 2026 marks the third year that Fortune has released this ranking, which honors large-scale companies with efficient operations and positive contributions to regional economic growth.

This year’s list includes companies from seven countries: Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines, and Cambodia. The ranking reflects the increasingly important role of Southeast Asia in the global supply chain, the significant shift in investment flows, and the business community’s ability to adapt to economic fluctuations.

According to Fortune’s announcement, Vietnamese companies accounted for about a quarter of the total revenue growth across the entire ranking, with total revenue reaching $177.9 billion—a 10.5% increase from the previous year and three times the region’s average growth rate. According to Fortune, BIDV ranked 42nd on the list of the 500 largest companies in Southeast Asia, with 2025 revenue of 7.66 billion USD and net income of 1.15 billion USD (converted).

As of December 31, 2025, BIDV’s total assets exceeded 3.3 million billion VND, up 20.5% from 2024, maintaining its position as the joint-stock commercial bank with the largest total assets in Vietnam. Consolidated pre-tax profit reached 37,788 billion VND, up 17.8% from the previous year. At the end of the first quarter of 2026, BIDV continued to show positive growth, with total assets reaching 3.39 million billion VND; pre-tax profit reached 8,572 billion VND, up 14% compared to the same period in 2025.

Recently, the international credit rating agency Moody’s released its latest credit rating report on BIDV. Accordingly, BIDV’s long-term local and foreign currency deposit ratings and issuer rating remain on par with the Vietnamese government’s rating and place the bank among those with the highest credit ratings in the Vietnamese market. Moody’s highly values BIDV’s strong customer deposit base and its very high likelihood of receiving government support when necessary. The Bank’s ability to mobilize funds and maintain liquidity is a key strength, thanks to its position as one of the largest state-owned banks in Vietnam.

Maintaining a high ranking on the Fortune Southeast Asia 500 list for three consecutive years affirms BIDV’s scale, strong financial capacity, and its pioneering and supportive role—as Vietnam’s oldest bank—within the Vietnamese and regional banking systems.
