watgate Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Can thai banks, in the event of a major disruption or melt down in the economy, implement bank bail-ins, similar to what U.S. banks can do with their depositors funds on deposit in their institutions? If so is there any threshold amount before the bail-ins can be introduced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricTh Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Each depositor in each bank is only paid up to a maximum of 1 million baht. If the economy collapse, all the banks will be in trouble so how can the government bail all of them? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watgate Posted February 27, 2022 Author Share Posted February 27, 2022 A bail-in, unlike a bail-out, enables banks in the U.S. to take depositors funds and you might ultimately get paid back on cents to the dollar during bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings.

userabcd Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 (edited) If worried, suggest you submit your query to the minister of finance and the central bank of Thailand for an answer. Doubt if any foreigners on this form could answer. Edited February 27, 2022 by userabcd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually she is just quoting your topics who are always about stuff like this but have never happened. So she is right for calling you out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
