Thai Household Debt Expected to Fall to 84% of GDP

Kasikorn Research Center expects Thailand's household‑debt‑to‑GDP ratio to fall to 84% by the end of 2026, down from 86.8% in 2025, despite minimal debt growth. Many low‑income households spend over 40% of income on debt repayments, and nearly a quarter of indebted households already have negative cash flow. The center warns the improvement reflects limited borrowing ability rather than healthier finances, and sustainable deleveraging will need higher incomes and stronger repayment capacity.
