source of business profit and a free channel of advertisement Although companies can boost their profit more than 85% by reducing customer defection rate by just 5%, the fact is that most of businesses lose from 15% to 20% of customers each year (Reichheld and Sasser, 1990) This study aims to define some determinants of customer loyalty in Vietnam retail banking, including Brand Awareness, Convenience, Service Personnel, Satisfaction, Social Influence and Switching Costs The survey was conducted in Ho Chi Minh City The result showed that all six factors have a positive influence on the loyalty in Vietnam retail banking In which, the influence from Brand Awareness, Satisfaction and Switching Costs was stronger than others The least impact was caused by Social

attractive topic in marketing Long-term customers are not only the vital source of profit but also a free channel of advertisement for business Cultivating loyal customers can lead to increased sales and customer share, lower costs, and higher prices (Zeithaml et al., 1996) Reichheld and Sasser (1990) reveal the surprising statistical number that companies can boost their profit more than 85% by reducing customer defection rate by just 5% However, the fact is that most of businesses lose from 15% to 20% of customers each year (Reichheld and Sasser, 1990) This explains for the reason why there are a number of economists as well as marketers all over the world research on customer loyalty In Vietnam, an emerging economy, marketing is still underdeveloped in comparison to the US, European and even some Asian countries (Khuat, 2012) Most of business, therefore, has not put a deep focus on loyalty and its important role to their business performance yet Vietnam has experienced a period of economic crisis for recent years Although the influence from the recession is not too serious as in some strong countries, most of business in Vietnam had to go bankruptcy and a large amount of bank debts could not be collected (The Financeplus, 2009; Le, 2014) Some small banks had to merge to the stronger ones for survival Many bank branches and transaction offices had to be closed or merged to others to cut off cost because of inefficient operation (The Vietinbank Network, 2014) The new trend for Vietnam banking therefore has opened This is retail banking, which aims to individual customers with small value on each transaction but a large amount of deals and customers However, the development of Vietnamese retail banking performance has been still not corresponding with the potential market of over Page | ninety million residents (The VPBS Report, 2014) Many banks, especially state-own ones, still ignore loyal individual customers who have a long time in good relationship with the banks in order to set a new relationship with big enterprises instead (Nguyen, 2014) Indeliberately, banks not create a good conditions for long-term customers to be loyal with them Hence, this study focuses on some determinants influencing on the loyalty of individual customers in Vietnam banks This study could be a reference for banks to be more concerned on retail banking 1.2 Research background Vietnamese retail banking is evaluated as an emerging market that is still full of potential (The VPBS Report, 2014; Keith Pogson, as cited in Thanh Thanh Lan, 2014) but the level of customer loyalty is low These features are demonstrated in the following analyses According to The World Bank Data (2013), Vietnam population was about 90million people at the end of the year 2013 Fifty percent of this number was in the labor force However, only 20% of Vietnam population has banking accounts (The VPBS Report, 2014) The rest 80% creates a potential market for retail banking in Vietnam In addition, the development of Vietnam economy in recent decades leads to a significant increase in the numbers of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita and the Gross National Income (GNI) per capita The Figure and reveal that the average income and the standard of living of Vietnamese people rise over the years One of cultural feature of Asian countries is accumulating Therefore, people have a tendency to allocate more budgets into saving items when they earn more money As a result, the demand of using financial service increases This contributes to create a potential market for retail banking in Vietnam Page | However, the number of Vietnamese people using banking service still accounts for a low rate Although there was a significant increase in market penetration rate of Vietnam banking, which was from 6% in 2006 to 21% in 2011; this rate was still modest in comparison to the number 55% held by the Pacific region (The VPBS Report, 2014) The VPBS Report 2014 shows that the rates of over-15-year-old people using debit card and credit card in Vietnam are lower than some developed Asian countries As can be seen from the Figure (Apendix A), Thailand is the country, which has the highest rate of over-15-year-old people using debit card (43%), followed by China (41%), Singapore (29%) and Philippines (23%), while that is only 15% in Vietnam The rate of over-15-year-old people using credit card in Vietnam is just 1%, holding the lowest rank among countries One more reason for the high potentiality of Vietnam retail banking is the unequal distribution in banking system between urban area and rural area The table (see Apendix A) shows clearly that up to 30% branches and transation offices of State Owning Commercial Banks, Foreign Banks and over 50% that of Commercial Banks gather in only four big cities; namely Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Danang City and Can Tho City While the remainder spread over 59 provinces and cities from the North to the South of Vietnam The Table (see Apendix A) illustrates the distribution of infrastruture in Vietnam banking system in 2013 The figures show that Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City have high density of transaction offices, which nearly 50 times higher than the average density of the whole country Due to a great number of transaction offices in these two cities, the average number of customers served in each transaction office is 30% lower than the average of the whole Vietnam Similarly, the number of customers using an ATM or POS is also approximately from 30% to 40% lower than the average number of the whole country This proves that service quality in the Page | large cities is better than the average level in the whole country There is aparently unequal development in retail banking service quality among regions, leading to opportunities to recruit the potentiality in far distance areas Relating to the elastic level of customer loyalty in Vietnam banking, it is claimed that there are too many banks in Vietnam (around 49 banks) offering the same service for customer to select while there are only to large banks for options in Australia and Japan (Keith Pogson, Douglas J Hamilton; according to Thanh Thanh Lan, 2014) In addition, marketing, especially bank marketing, in Vietnam are still under developed compared with other neighbor countries; while banking belongs to intangible service Therefore, customers are confused among so many bank brands that they even could not remember and recognize The VPBS Report (2014) shows that Agribank, one of the four biggest banks in Vietnam, lost 1.91% its market share during the period of 2010 and 2013 Besides this, low service quality from personnel may lead to customer defection The lack of professional experience of staff in some banks, for instance, led to unexpected service quality (Le Chi, 2013; The Infonet, 2013) Interviewing some customers in well-known banks around Ho Chi Minh City about service quality from banking staffs reveals some inadequacies Firstly, customers have to wait for a long time, even over one hour in rush days, to be served because the number of customers is overload for bank tellers Secondly, bank staffs seem to have no time to introduce new promotional program or listen to customers for cross-selling Thirdly, due to working stress and crowded customers, bank tellers sometimes interact with customers in an unhappy attitude Bank managers just focus on promulgating policies and launching marketing strategies but ignore to observing their staff in conducting process Failure in solving customer dissatisfaction in the current era of information technology leads to a mass of loss for Page | Mariotti, J 1999 Smart Things to Know about Brands and Branding London: Capstone Publishing
