A Third Thai Central Bank Rate Cut but Not by a Unanimous Vote

April 30, 2025

By a 5-2 vote with dissents favoring no change, the Bank of Thailand‘s policy interest rate was reduced by 25 basis points from 2.0% to 1.75%. This marked the third such cut from a peak of 2.5% maintained for thirteen months until October 2024. CPI inflation in Thailand of 0.8% in March was below its 1-3% target range, but monetary officials are being careful and closely monitoring the risk posed by mounting trade tensions around the world.
