Thailand government has enough room to support the economy, says Finance Minister

A rating upgrade for Thailand is expected amidst improved fundamentals.

OCBC Treasury Research noted:

Finance Minister Kittiratt said that the government still has enough room to support the economy if necessary. Added that GDP growth is still likely to reach 5.5% for 2012 and that the budget deficit will narrow to THB 300bn from THB 400bn last year. Kittiratt also suggested that a rating upgrade is seen as likely for Thailand given its improved fundamentals.

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.
