GH Bank Reports Strong Nine-Month Lending Performance
Government Housing Bank (GH Bank) has issued 186.47 billion baht in new loans during the first nine months of 2026, supporting home ownership for over 175,000 accounts.
According to a report from Khaosod Online, the Government Housing Bank (GH Bank) announced its financial performance for the first three quarters of 2026. Between January and September, the bank successfully issued 186.476 billion baht in new loans, facilitating home ownership for 175,038 accounts. This figure represents an 8.28% increase compared to the same period in the previous year and accounts for 75.56% of the bank's annual target of 246.795 billion baht. Managing Director Mahatthana Ampornphisit stated that the bank remains confident in meeting its full-year lending goal. Furthermore, the bank reported a reduction in its non-performing loan (NPL) ratio, which now stands at 5.49%. For residents and potential property investors in Thailand, these figures indicate a stable environment for mortgage accessibility, particularly for low-to-middle-income earners who constitute a significant portion of these new loans. While the bank is optimistic about its annual targets, the final impact on the broader real estate market and the sustainability of these NPL reductions remain to be confirmed as the year concludes. This data reflects the bank's ongoing role in the national housing sector.
