Mitihoon – Mr. Bundit Sapianchai, Director and Acting President of Export-Import Bank of Thailand (EXIM Thailand), announced EXIM Thailand’s operating results as of the end of the second quarter of 2025. The Bank has continued to support and enable Thai entrepreneurs in maintaining export and investment continuity amid global economic vulnerability and uncertainties. Although the impacts of the US reciprocal tariffs have eased after Team Thailand’s successful negotiation to lower the tariff rate to 19%, there remain geopolitical risks, particularly those arising from the prevailing border dispute, that have put pressure on Thai export and hindered international trade and supply chains. EXIM Thailand has accordingly rolled out proactive measures with over 10,000 million baht earmarked to boost liquidity for Thai entrepreneurs.
They are emergency assistance and liquidity enhancement scheme totaling 4,000 million baht and new market penetration support scheme totaling 6,000 million baht, featuring products such as EXIM Safe Trade Credit and EXIM-DITP Empower Financing (in collaboration with Department of International Trade Promotion, Ministry of Commerce), Transformation Loan, and Employment Retention Credit (in collaboration with Social Security Office). Furthermore, EXIM Export Clinic has been established to provide in-depth advisory services on finance, international trade, risk management, and market expansion.
The Bank remains committed to its role as a Development Bank operating under environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles and is well positioned to strengthen Thai entrepreneurs, SMEs and vulnerable groups in particular.
As of the end of the second quarter of 2025, EXIM Thailand recorded new loan approvals of 28,033 million baht, and total outstanding loans and contingents of 189,780 million baht, a 4.57% growth year-on-year. Of this total, 140,137 million baht or 73.84% was outstanding loans and contingents for investment, 42,313 million baht of which was for international projects. This has reflected EXIM Thailand’s role in consistently promoting Thai private sector investment abroad. Classified by principal markets, the Bank has encouraged Thai business expansion to the CLMV (Cambodia, Lao PDR, Myanmar, and Vietnam) and New Frontier markets with high growth prospects, involving total outstanding loans and contingents of 36,436 million baht.
In view of the environment, EXIM Thailand has remained steadfast in developing and applying financial innovations to support Thai entrepreneurs with a view to strengthening their global market competitiveness in a sustainable manner. These efforts are aimed not only at supporting renewable energy projects, but also at leveling up other businesses, such as those in the agricultural sector. Recently, the Bank has joined forces with Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) in supporting and uplifting Thai palm oil businesses throughout the supply chain toward international standards with competitive edge on the global front. As a result, EXIM Thailand recorded outstanding ESG loans of 81,879 million baht, representing 43.14% of total outstanding loans, compared with 38.43% in the same period of the previous year.
As regards the society, EXIM Thailand has continued to support Thai entrepreneurs by being a trusted partner through all circumstances, whether during crises or periods of economic recovery. Comprehensive financial packages have been launched on a timely basis to relieve hardship of Thai business sectors and bolster their capabilities to the greatest extent, such as EXIM Employment Enhancement Financing, phase 3 to boost liquidity of business entities so that they can maintain employment of labor force, hence decreased impact on the economy, EXIM Smooth Trade Credit to ease retail SMEs’ financial cost burden and broaden their access to financial sources, and “Jai Trong, Khong Sap” (Punctual Payment to Maintain Assets), phase 2 under the “Khun Soo, Rao Chuay” (You Fight, We Help) scheme offering appropriate debt restructuring solutions for vulnerable SMEs.
In provision of export credit and investment insurance facility, a risk management tool to raise Thai entrepreneurs’ confidence so that they can expand business overseas firmly and sustainably, as of the end of the second quarter of 2025, EXIM Thailand recorded 107,901 million baht in export credit and investment insurance business turnover. With full-fledged services, coving both credit and insurance facilities, EXIM Thailand recorded a customer base of 5,150, of whom as high as 79.09% were SMEs. Besides, EXIM Export Studio has continued providing knowledge enhancement and potential development for a total of as high as 23,675 entrepreneurs through training and incubation programs, business matching, and networking so that they would be able to cope with any economic challenges. This has underlined EXIM Thailand’s role as Thai SMEs’ companion in their endeavors toward the global trade front.
In terms of governance, EXIM Thailand upholds transparency, examinability, and responsibility for stakeholders in all sectors, with determination to cherish the organization culture that incorporates good governance and sustainable finance management mindset. As of the end of the second quarter of 2025, the Bank recorded total NPLs of 6,541 million baht with an NPL ratio of 3.66%. It set aside an allowance for expected credit loss of 17,607 million baht, hence a strong position, contributing to an NPL coverage ratio of 269.18% to buffer against rising risks from the looming global economic recession. As a result, EXIM Thailand posted a net profit of 663 million baht, representing a year-on-year growth of 263%.
Amid the global economic volatility and intensifying competition, EXIM Thailand stands strong as the country’s key mechanism in empowering Thai entrepreneurs to overcome all challenges and expanding their businesses sustainably on the global stage. The Bank has made available for the entrepreneurs a full suite of services, systematic risk management, and enhancement of in-depth capabilities under corporate governance principles and with solid management. This has reflected EXIM Thailand’s role as a Development Bank, not only driving growth and resilience in the business sectors, but also contributing to Thailand’s long-term economic stability and sustainability.
