Thailand's April inflation slips to 2.27%

BoT also cut policy rates by 25 bps.

According to BBVA, Thailand's April inflation eases in April to 2.27% y/y (consensus: 2.35%) from 2.42% in March, with core inflation at 0.94% (well within the Central Bank's target of 0.5-3.0%).

BBVA also said that the Bank of Thailand cut its policy rate by 25 bps to 2.50% last Wednesday given a weaker growth momentum and subdued inflation.

"The government, however, had urged for a bigger move of at least 50 bps in order to hit the planned growth target of 4.2% - 5.2% in 2013 (BBVA forecast: 4.7%). We would not rule out further rate cuts if domestic demand stays weak and/or the currency appreciation resumes," BBVA said.

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.
