EXIM Bank to play greater role in developing SMEs


The Export-Import Bank of Thailand has restructured its core functional units, aimed at developing small- and medium-size enterprises (SMEs) in compliance with the government’s policy on SME promotion.

Sathaporn Chinajit, president of EXIM Bank, said the bank had accelerated the implementation of the business plan for 2005.

Under the plan, it would focus on the development of five industries including food, vehicle, jewellery, marine business, and furniture.

As well, the bank would emphasize developing SMEs in support of the government’s plan to reform and develop the country’s economy at the grass-root level.

The bank would play a greater role in coordinating with other state agencies concerned in organizing activities to encourage people to become exporters.
