Exchange Rate, Not Published Anymore After 2 Pm

[henryalleman]

I'm a very suspicious man, that's why I wonder that since 2 day's not any bank give new exchange rates after 2 pm. when before they give new rates till sometimes 5pm.

Certainly when I see that on the SET the rates of the financials and banks are going down strongly since 2 days also. Or am I just suffering from paranoia

If you have a look at the above mentioned web page, you will certainly notice that there are sometimes even less updates than during the last two days (and it has already happened several times in the past).

yes I know, I follow the exchange rates of 3 banks, a,d the indices of the SET hour by hour. but also Kasikorn and Bangkok bank did it already 2 days, I just wonder why they do. Because in my home country the rate of Baht is adapted 24 hours a day.

Banks are (were) obliged to set and update exchange rates twice a day and not more. I am not sure if this is still the case. Things might have changed. That is not the interbank rate but the rate for people who are about to change foreign currency in cash or TCs.
