[バンコク 9日 ロイター] - タイ中央銀行のセタプット総裁は9日の記者会見で、トランプ米政権の関税措置による影響は「長期間にわたって続き、すぐに終わることはない」とし、財政、金融の両面でタイの政策対応余地は限られているとの警戒感を示した。セタプット氏は、金融政策は固定されておらず、見通しが変われば中銀は金利を調整する用意があるとしつつも、その余地は限られると述べた。「嵐がやって来る。真の影響はまだ表れていないが、第4・四半期には実感されるだろう」と予想。経済は第4・四半期の後に底を打つが、「正常に戻るには長い期間を要する」との見通しを示した。中銀は4月に2カ月連続で利下げを実施し、政策金利を2年ぶり低水準の1.75%とした。財務省は最近、米国の関税と世界経済減速の影響を踏まえ、今年のタイの成長率見通しを3%から2.1%に引き下げた。トランプ大統領がタイに示した「相互」関税率は36%で、東南アジア諸国の中で最も厳しい部類に属する。私たちの行動規範:トムソン・ロイター「信頼の原則」, opens new tab

BANGKOK (Reuters) - Thailand has limited fiscal and monetary policy room ahead of what could be a prolonged impact from steep U.S. tariffs, but the economy is not in crisis despite facing a very high degree of uncertainty, its central bank chief said on Friday. Thailand is among the Southeast Asian nations hardest hit by U.S. President Donald Trump's trade measures and is facing a 36% tariff if a reduction cannot be negotiated before a global moratorium expires in July.

The Bank of Thailand's monetary policy committee voted 5-2 to reduce the one-day repurchase rate by 25 basis points to 1.75%, the lowest level in two years. That followed a similar reduction at the previous meeting in February.
