Bank profits up 3.97% in H1

Thailand's banking industry reported a modest increase in net profit for the first half of 2025, weighed down by a decline in net interest margin, lower interest rates, and sluggish loan growth. According to financial statements submitted to the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), 11 SET-listed banks and their subsidiaries posted a combined net profit of 134.5 billion baht for the first half of 2025, marking a year-on-year increase of 3.97%. Among the six domestic systemically important banks (D-SIBs), only SCB X -- the holding company of Siam Commercial Bank (SCB) -- and Bangkok Bank (BBL) recorded net profit growth. SCB X reported the highest net profit growth in the sector, rising 18.7% year-on-year to 25.2 billion baht. BBL followed with a net profit of 24.4 billion baht, up 9.5%. The remaining four D-SIBs -- Krungthai Bank (KTB), Kasikornbank (KBank), Krungsri (Bank of Ayudhya), and TMBThanachart Bank (ttb) -- posted either flat or declining net profits. KBank reported the highest net profit among all banks at 26.2 billion baht, but this figure represented a 0.98% decline from the same period last year. The marginal increase in the sector's overall net profit was primarily driven by non-interest income and effective cost control measures. However, the overall industry saw a decline in net interest income (NII), reflecting the downward trend in interest rates and weak loan demand in line with Thailand's economic conditions. The six D-SIBs reported a combined NII of 327 billion baht for the first half of 2025, down 6.57% year-on-year. As of June 2025, the banks reported total outstanding loans of 13.2 trillion baht, a 0.97% decrease from the end of 2024. Five of the six D-SIBs recorded loan contractions. Only BBL, Thailand's largest lender by total assets, reported marginal loan growth of 0.73%. Kanjana Chockpisansin, head of banking and financial sector research at K-Research, noted that the banking industry is expected to continue facing challenges in the second half of the year due to both domestic and external pressures. Ongoing global uncertainties, particularly stemming from the impact of US tariffs on Thai exports, are expected to weigh on Thailand's economic growth and loan expansion in the second half of the year. Additionally, the declining interest rate environment is likely to continue pressuring the sector's NII. K-Research projects that total loan growth for the banking sector will contract by 0.6% in 2025, in line with a weakening economic outlook in the second half of the year. The centre forecasts Thai GDP growth of just 1.4% for this year. Arthid Nanthawithaya, chief executive of SCB X, said in the financial statement to the SET that despite persistent macroeconomic uncertainties and the prolonged household debt issue, SCB X remains committed to supporting all borrowers through various ongoing assistance measures, including its "You Fight, We Help" debt relief programme.

Katie Price shows off new lips and enhanced bum following latest BBL procedure

Katie Price has taken to social media to show off her freshly plumped lips and new bum after getting getting the procedures done during her lunch hour Katie Price is showing off her figure once again after undergoing a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) during her lunch break. The 47 year oldOnlyFans star had the procedure - which involves injecting filler into the buttocks to enhance the shape and making it rounder - alongside getting lip filler. ‌ Revealing her plumper pout at The Clinic Club, Katie told fans she was squeezing in the cosmetic work before taking her son Harvey to his new home, saying: "So my lips are done. I haven't gone too big and now I'm gonna do my bum. Literally, got the train up, having my lips done, having filler in two areas of my bum, then taking Harvey to his new place." ‌ The mum of five went on to say that having the procedure done in Turkey would be "more dangerous," the Mirror reports. She stated: "I'd be put to sleep, it would be more dangerous and they use your own fat. This is just filler. Come up here for an hour and half and it's done, amazing..." ‌ Showing off her pout, Katie added: "See, you can tell I haven't had much today. Gone a bit more classy," before winking at the camera and saying: "I just need to get my lashes done now..." Later on her Instagram Stories, the glamour icon showed off her newly enhanced bum, with two carefully placed plasters visible beneath her pink lace thong. She shared: "So I've just done my BBL in under an hour. So quick, the plasters are on and ready to go. Love it! Woooo! BBL in your lunch hour." ‌ It comes as Katie prepares for a new chapter with her eldest child, Harvey, who she recently told fans is "coming home for good" after facing challenges securing a college placement for the 23-year-old. Harvey, who is blind, autistic and one of just 2,000 people in the UK living with Prader Willi syndrome, is facing a major transition as he leaves his special residential school and prepares to head out into the "real world." ‌ Katie has spoken openly about the financial strain of keeping Harvey in residential college, especially amid council funding cuts and her own ongoing financial struggles, including being declared bankrupt for the second time. Now, she has revealed that her "baby bear" is coming home to her before Harvey moves into independent living in October in Littlehampton. ‌ Speaking on her podcast, The Katie Price Show, which she co-hosts with her sister Sophie, she said: "Harvey is doing the countdown for his new place. He's got his leavers ceremony where they give out certificates and then it's the 'real world' Mr Harvey Price." Katie shared that Harvey will initially move into temporary accommodation before starting his new placement in October. She explained: "I've found him a place in Southampton which is temporary. It's got five other adults in it. Then he moves to his place in October, which is Littlehampton, which will be nearer to me. He's going from college to independent living."
