Thailand Bip-Wachstum

Thailand’s economy grew by 0.6% qoq in Q2 2025, exceeding market forecasts of 0.3% and marking the sixth consecutive quarter of expansion, though slightly below Q1's reading of 0.7%. The latest result reflected weaker private consumption (0.2% vs 0.6% in Q1) amid high household debt. Meanwhile, government spending rose for the first time in three quarters (0.4% vs -1.3%), supported by a rebound in social transfers. Net trade also contributed positively, with exports increasing at a slightly faster pace (2.1% vs 1.9%) as firms accelerated shipments ahead of higher U.S. tariffs, while imports rebounded strongly (5.4% vs -1.8%). At the same time, fixed investment continued to shrink but at a softer rate (-1.9% vs -2.3%). By sector, the agriculture sector lost momentum (0.5% vs 3.4%), posting its slowest increase in three quarters. Meanwhile, non-agriculture activity quickened (0.6% vs 0.3%), mainly led by a recovery in industry (1.5% vs 0.2%), as services growth slowed (0.2% vs 0.4%).
