Thailand GDP to inch higher to 1.8%-2%

But private consumption will continue to be sluggish as flood-related spending fades.

According to Moody's Analytics-Asia Pacific Review, Thailand’s growth likely slowed sharply on a q/q basis, but a low base effect lifts the y/y rate. Real GDP likely grew 1.8% q/q and 2% y/y in the second quarter after the first quarter’s 11% q/q and 0.3% y/y rises. Private consumption slowed as the boost from flood‐related spending faded.

"Trade likely failed to contribute to growth; strong global demand for autos lifted exports, but imports also gained as firms increased machinery and equipment purchases for reconstruction. The key area of strength was private and public investment, which strengthened on the back of reconstruction."

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
