BNP Paribas has become the latest global financial institution to open an onshore wealth management business in Thailand.
The French financial firm, which has been present in the southeast Asian market since 1979, made the announcement on Tuesday. The business will make use of the unusual nature of Thailand’s capital restrictions.
BNPP will engage with wealthy clients – everyone from high net-worth individuals to family offices – onshore, but will book transactions offshore in Singapore, in currencies other than the baht.
Thailand is one of the few places in Asia with such an open and innovative framework
