On this occasion, the Bank offers financial products and services, as well as special promotions for Northern people, such as loans with special interest rates to help customers recover from the recent flood. At the same time, the Bank has selected outstanding products to meet the end of year tax savings needs, including insurance and mutual funds, while offering digital banking services that help make every financial transaction easy.
Bangkok Bank Executive Vice President, Consumer Banking, Miss Pochanee Kongkalai said the Bangkok Bank booth at Money Expo Chiangmai 2024 was designed under the concept of “Enabling your financial journey”. The Bank offers a variety of financial products and services that are in line with every lifestyle, enabling people in the North to choose the services that best meet their needs, especially in supporting them to recover from the recent major flooding. These products include special interest rate loans, Bualuang Home Loans, and Bualuang Poonphol Loans to help them repair homes or buy replacement furniture, with a special interest rate of MRR-2% per year and a 5-year installment period.
In addition, the need for financial planning for tax deduction is another important issue at the end of the year. The Bank has joined with its partners to provide life insurance, non-life insurance and mutual fund products with special offers for customers at the event, such as Be Together life insurance, which was well received at last year’s Money Expo Chiangmai, as well as RMF / SSF / Thai ESG tax deduction funds, an alternative investment option for savings or preparing for retirement.
“Bangkok Bank is a "trusted partner" who understands and stands by customers in all situations, so we focus on offering financial products that help support the recovery of business operators who have been severely affected by the flood so they are ready for opportunities in the tourism market during high season. We also provide tax planning assistance for customers who are looking for tax deduction products at the end of the year. The Bank is also ready to meet all needs of customers. The Bank is a "trusted partner" who has always understood customers throughout the 80 years of its operations,” said Ms. Pochanee.
