The state planning agency on Monday cut its forecasts for 2020 economic growth to 1.5%-2.5% from 2.7%-3.7%. It also lowered its outlook for exports, the main growth driver, to a 1.4% rise from a 2.3% increase projected in November.
Don Nakornthab, a senior BOT director, said 2019 GDP and the NESDC’s growth outlook were less than the BOT’s forecasts of 2.5% and 2.8%, respectively. However, the recent rate cut took into account a much weaker-than-expected growth outlook for 2020. Separately, the finance ministry said it would closely monitor the situation and was ready to introduce additional measures to help the economy.

Gross domestic product expanded 1.6% in the October-December quarter from a year earlier, compared with the 2.6% growth in the previous three months, the Office of the National Economic and Social Development Council, the government's economic-planning arm, said Monday.
