The focus of this study is the supervisory and regulatory framework
for bank supervision in Thailand and the Thai authorities' efforts
to modernize and restructure the Thai banking system. It examines
the obstacles to this restructuring, which include economic
difficulties in Thailand and the East Asia region in the 1990s as
well as more fundamental historical, cultural and socio-economic
factors that underpin Thai society. The book looks at the numerous
banking statutes put in place in Thailand since the early 20th
century, including legislation of the 1980s in response to problems
involving fraud, insider dealing and solvency concerns. It examines
how historically ambiguous structures of governmental
responsibility and power, and a heavy emphasis on government
discretion in regulation, have so far inhibited the effectiveness
of this extensive body of legislation in developing a sound modern
banking system. There follows an analysis of the 1997-1998 Thai
Banking Crisis and ways in which lessons can be learned to avoid
similar crises in future. The author argues for a greater degree of
transparency in the regulatory process to bring it into line with
internationally accepted standards, for increased supervisory
implementation and enforcement by Thai governmental authorities,
and for the ultimate depoliticization of the bank regulatory and
supervisory processes.
