Bank of Thailand orders interest rate fee changes for loans<\/h3>\n

The Bank of Thailand has ordered banks to change their interest rate fee structure for loans to SMEs and individuals and fees for ATM cards. The BoT ordered banks that they must now charge interest on the balance amount and not the full amount of the loan for SMEs and the interest charge for default on mortgages, SME loans, and personal loans must be based on the installment amount and not on the balance. Banks were also asked to offer a grace period on interest payment should a debtor fail to pay his debt on time due to genuine financial difficulties. If the bank cancels an ATM or debit card then it must refund a proportional amount of the card fee to clients and when banks issue new cards to replace old ones, they can no longer impose a fee charge. Additionally, banks must not demand duplicate fees from clients and must disclose their fee charges to the public.<\/p>\n
