Performance and Analysis
Business Performance Summary

Thai Credit’s interest income for the 3Q/2024 increased 1.8% from to THB 4,614.2 million. The increased is primarily due to the increase in interest income from loans to customers, as a result of the growth in all Thai Credit's key loan product segments, particularly MSME loan and Home loan. 

Thai Credit’s interest expenses for the 3Q/2024 slightly increased 2.0% to THB 864.6 million, primarily due to interest expenses on deposits as a result of the increase in the amount of deposits through promotional programs, especially Alpha Savings Program, including fixed deposits and Thunjai programs.

Thai Credit significantly reduced its ECL as the proportion of Stage 2 and Stage 3 loans to total loans continued to decline. This was especially noticeable in Stage 2 loans, which returned to normal after borrowers consistently made three consecutive payments. Additionally, losses from NPL sales decreased as the bank adjusted its NPL sales strategy due to improving asset quality. As of September 30, 2024, the bank maintained its NPL ratio at 4.5%, which remains manageable.
