2025, Another Soft Year For Thai Economy

It's expected that the Thai Economy will only expand by less than 3%, lower than that of its Asean neighbours.

Poon Panichpibool, Markets Strategist, Krung Thai Bank tells us whether the recent debt support measures and cash handouts will boost consumption and in turn growth for 2025. We also ask what we can expect from their equity markets which are one of the worst performing in Asia.
