This partnership will provide information on the sustainability efforts of listed companies through the ESG Data Platform and support the SET Carbon system, helping the Bank's clients align with sustainability objectives. Starting in the third quarter of 2024, SET and EXIM Thailand will jointly develop export credits and loans that incorporate ESG data for evaluation, with full services expected to begin in 2025.
As a Green Development Bank, EXIM Thailand is committed to continuously developing Greenovations with special financial benefit offers to encourage Thai entrepreneurs to participate in the Green Export Supply Chain. This initiative aims to enhance their ability to comply with international environmental standards and achieve sustainable development goals, ultimately driving Thailand toward carbon neutrality and net zero emissions.
