Export - Import Bank of Thailand (EXIM)
Background and Objectives
Export-Import Bank of Thailand (EXIM Thailand) is a state-owned specialized financial institution under the supervision of the Ministry of Finance. Established by the Export-Import Bank of Thailand Act, 1993 (B.E. 2536), which took effect on September 7, 1993, the Bank’s objective is to conduct business that promotes and supports Thai export, import, and investment for the purpose of national development by providing credit facilities, guarantees, insurance against risks, or other services conducive to the achievement of its goals.
In addition to capital increases from the Ministry of Finance to accommodate its business operations in various periods (most recently in 2023), EXIM Thailand maintains financial self-reliance through fundraising. This includes borrowing from domestic and international financial institutions of all types, and issuing short- and long-term financial instruments to financial institutions and state agencies, as well as certificates of deposit, for use in financing Thai exporters and investors.
