In its initial report, the central bank said the Brexit would not significantly affect Thailand's trade and financial sector. Only 1.8 per cent of Thailand's total exports go to the UK, while Thai banks' direct exposure in the UK and Europe-wide financial sector is only 1.31 per cent of total assets.
The central bank noted that the baht's depreciation yesterday was in line with regional movements. It acknowledged that the capital market would be volatile in the short-term, with possible outflows, though small, from the equity and bond markets.
