The Bank of Thailand plans to maintain a gradual approach to normalising monetary policy throughout this year, according to its chief.
The central bank's key objective is to contain inflation, even amid an uneven economic recovery, as the inflation rate is expected to remain high this year, Bank of Thailand governor Sethaput Suthiwartnarueput said at the Thailand Focus 2022 seminar hosted by the Stock Exchange of Thailand on Wednesday.
The central bank's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) has two more meetings scheduled this year, in September and November.
