Thailand’s private investment growth cooled in February 2026, with the indicator easing to 1.9% month-over-month from 2.7% in January 2026, according to data updated on 31 March 2026. The latest reading signals a moderation in investment momentum after a stronger start to the year.
On a month-over-month basis, February’s “actual” figure reflects a softer expansion compared with January, when private investment posted a 2.7% increase versus December. The slowdown suggests that while investment activity remains in positive territory, businesses may be turning more cautious following January’s relatively robust gains.
The data will be closely watched by markets and policymakers as an early signal of private sector sentiment and capital spending trends in Thailand, particularly if the deceleration extends into the coming months.
