Fair Finance Thailand launches 8th annual policy assessment of Thai banks
On February 6, 2026, Fair Finance Thailand (FFT) presented the findings of its 8th annual Thai bank policy assessment. This year’s study evaluated the publicly disclosed ESG policies of 11 major Thai financial institutions, including 8 commercial banks and 3 Specialized Financial Institutions (SFIs).
Despite the more stringent criteria introduced in the Fair Finance Guide International (FFGI) 2025 methodology, the overall average score of Thai banks continues to climb.
Among the 11 financial institutions assessed in 2025:
- TMBThanachart Bank (ttb) ranked first among commercial banks with a score of 40.75%, followed by SCB (38.95%) and KBANK (38.47%)
- Government Savings Bank (GSB) led the Specialized Financial Institutions category with a score of 27.90%
The FFGI 2025 methodology introduced critical new criteria regarding Cybersecurity. While the top 5 banks demonstrated excellence in staff training, consumer education, and comprehensive risk management, there is still a significant gap: no Thai bank has yet announced a clear, formal policy regarding access to remedy for consumers who fall victim to cyber fraud.
