Bangkok Bank has joined InterGold Gold Trade Co., Ltd. to launch “Supply Chain Finance”, a service that provides gold traders with access to full funding sources and aims to increase working capital to trade gold. The service offers high credit limits and special interest rates while enabling customers to make secure, fee free credit withdrawals 24 hours a day, meeting customer needs of having a “trusted partner” while enhancing growth opportunities for Thai entrepreneurs in a thriving gold investment market.
Bangkok Bank Executive Vice President Pipat Assamongkol said the Bank has cooperated with InterGold Gold Trade Co., Ltd., one of Thailand's major importers and exporters of gold bars, to launch "Supply Chain Finance" for gold traders. This is an online service that enhances the financial potential of entrepreneurs who partner with InterGold so that they have available working capital and are ready to seize business opportunities, especially in the gold market which continues to be popular with investors and savers. The Bank has designed the service to be flexible, and special interest rates perfectly meet customer needs. In addition, it is also convenient as customers can withdraw their credit, make payments and check their remaining credit limit online 24-hours a day, as well as benefiting from free transactions and the highest security standards.
“This partnership between the Bank and InterGold Gold Trade is another important step that will strengthen InterGold's trading partners, giving them liquidity that enables them to buy and sell gold at the right time. Gold is a popular asset and a popular alternative savings option among investors.

Therefore, the "Supply Chain Finance" service is ready to be a complete source of capital that will help strengthen the financial potential of InterGold's trading partners. As a “trusted partner”, Bangkok Bank is proud to help enhance the potential of Thai entrepreneurs so they can capture business opportunities and achieve strong and stable growth,” said Mr. Pipat.
