Thailand Banking Sector Report 2021-2022

The COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted economic growth as is evident from the 6.1% contraction in GDP reported by the Thai economy in 2020. The banking sector was impacted with profits falling by 46.0% y/y in 2020 as the sector resorted to creating provisioning buffers to tackle with the uncertainties and due to lower operating profits caused by the rate cuts and lower credit growth due to slowdown in economic activity. Strong capital adequacy ratios and liquidity coverage ratios puts the sector on a strong footing as far as stability goes, but challenges remain as multiple COVID waves act as a setback to economic recovery and growth, impacting cash flows and income levels of businesses and individuals in an uneven manner.​
