New BOT page to promote overseas investment

The Bank of Thailand has opened a page on its website to promote Thai direct investment overseas.

 
http://www.bot.or.th/Thai/FinancialMarkets/ThaiDirectInvestment/Pages/ThaiDirectInvestment.aspx is aimed to be a one-stop venue for all investment-related information. 
Pongpen Ruengvirayudh, a deputy governor, said that it's the central bank's policy to promote more overseas investment by Thai companies, to help balance the capital flows. 
In the first eight months of this year, Thailand's overseas investment reached US$5.5 billion. Last year, the figure was $12.7 billion.
