Krungsri Auto, a leader in automotive finance under Bank of Ayudhya PCL, is advancing its 'SEE Beyond' mid-term business plan with the 3X strategy to drive sustainable growth amidst economic challenges and rising household debt. This strategy focuses on three key pillars: Explore & Exploit, strengthening core businesses while unlocking new opportunities; Exchange, enhancing value creation within the automobile user ecosystem; and Execute, ensuring precise execution for long-term success. Through this approach, Krungsri Auto aims to become the top choice for automobile users.
Mr. Congsin Congcar, Head of Krungsri Auto Group, Bank of Ayudhya PCL, stated, "With Thailand's household debt reaching 91.4% by the end of 2024 and projected economic growth at 2.7% in 2025, the automotive finance market faces significant challenges. We estimate auto lending volume to range between 383,402-404,901 million baht, reflecting a potential year-on-year growth of 1% or a contraction of up to 5%. In this dynamic landscape, businesses must swiftly adapt their strategies to align with market shifts and evolving consumer behavior.
To ensure sustainable growth, Krungsri Auto is implementing the 3X strategy as our 2025 framework. This approach strengthens Krungsri Auto's core business while unlocking new opportunities, integrating advanced technologies, and developing future-ready solutions that meet the needs of automobile users. At the same time, we are expanding partnerships and equipping our employees with the skills needed for precise execution, ensuring long-term success and reinforcing our position as the No.1 choice for automobile users."
