Bangkok Bank First to Follow Bank of Thailands Rate Cut, Lowering Loan Rates by Average 0.10% Effective Today (26 Feb 2026)

After the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) decided yesterday (25 Feb 2026) to cut the policy interest rate by 0.25% to 1.00% to align with Thailand's recovering economy, Bangkok Bank has lowered its interest rates by about 0.10% to help stimulate economic growth and relieve debt burdens for customers, effective from 26 February 2026.

Chaiyarit Anuchitworawong, Executive Vice President of Bangkok Bank, disclosed that the bank has announced reductions in lending interest rates as follows:

  • The interest rate for top-tier large customers on term loans (Minimum Loan Rate: MLR) is set at 6.35% per annum.
  • The interest rate for top-tier large customers on overdraft loans (Minimum Overdraft Rate: MOR) is set at 6.50% per annum.
  • The interest rate for top-tier retail customers (Minimum Retail Rate: MRR) is set at 6.50% per annum.

This rate adjustment aligns with the Monetary Policy Committee's goal to support economic recovery amid a slowing economy with increased risks, and to enhance the effectiveness of monetary measures and government policies.
