Thai central bank chief says interest rates cannot address everything

THAILAND must use a mix of policies in handling the economy and interest rates cannot address everything, its central bank governor said on Tuesday, adding monetary policy would be outlook-dependent.

The country must build buffers for economic resiliency and the Bank of Thailand was not focusing on giving forward guidance, Governor Sethaput Suthiwartnarueput told a business forum. He also said debt support measures would be announced next week. REUTERS
