This slowdown has prevailed alongside simmering discontent with persistent socioeconomic inequalities and the deepening climate crisis. More recently, the coronavirus outbreak will further dampen tourism and this will negatively impact Thai economy in 2020. Despite growing uncertainty in the direction of global economy, Thailand remains an attractive investment destination. Foreign direct investment (FDI) applications in the first nine months of 2019 increased 69% from a year earlier, boosted by the rollout of investment promotion packages, proactive measures to improve the country’s business ecosystem and ease of doing business. The banking industry has been facing unprecedented disruption in the face of rapidly evolving customer behaviour and competition from digital attackers. On a global scale, Thailand is ranked first for internet banking penetration, second for ownership of cryptocurrency, and third in mobile commerce, according to the Global Digital Report 2019. On the regulatory front, the Bank of Thailand has displayed a strong willingness to embrace the digital revolution, laying the foundations for standalone digital banks, as well as the issuance of a digital currency to facilitate cross border transactions in the near future. Given these external trends, it is imperative that we continue our transformation into an innovative and forward looking bank that will be at the forefront of the digital age. In 2019, CIMB Thai reported a consolidated net profit of THB 1,501.6 million, a 216-time increase from the previous year, and the highest ever profit recorded by the Bank. This was driven by a reduction in provisions by 47.7% and an increase in operating income of 3.5%. The Bank’s capital position remains strong, with BIS and Tier-1 capital ratios of 18% and 13% respectively, both well above the regulatory standard and internal capital targets. In addition to delivering solid financial performance, our key focus in 2019 was to build a strong foundation for the Bank to further advance its transformation. The Fast Forward programme has been instrumental in embedding new proactive strategies across the organisation to enhance our product offering, streamline processes and create an agile and digital-ready work culture. In 2020, we will continue to focus on improving our customer experience with strengthened data analytics and increased use of technology. The Board will continue to fully support the Bank’s aspiration of becoming an ‘ASEAN Bank’ in Thailand with the scale of a mid-tier bank by 2023. Good governance remains at the core of our culture. Operating our business with the highest standards of transparency ensures that we can drive sustainable value creation for all our stakeholders. In line with CIMB Group policy, we will continue to steer and motivate sustainable business practices. On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to thank the Management Committee and all employees for their hard work and commitment throughout the past year.
