Thai Central Bank Sees Limited Policy Room After Three Rate Cuts
Thailand's central bank has limited 'ammunition' after recent interest rate cuts, according to Governor Sethaput Suthiwartnarueput, who called for more targeted measures to shield Southeast Asia's second-largest economy from the impact of US tariff.
The Bank of Thailand is exploring additional measures, the timing of which will depend on the severity of the hit from US tariff on Thai exports, Sethaput told a briefing on Friday. The steps won't be broad-based but focused on sectors in need of help, he said.
