Thailand is entering 2026 amid mounting risks — a sluggish global economy, escalating border tensions, the Myanmar crisis, trade conflicts, and new European carbon regulations such as CBAM and EUDR, which will directly impact Thai exports. Thailand’s GDP grew only 1.2% in 2025, with full-year expectations hovering around just 2%.
Experts warn that Thai businesses are now caught in multiple “traps,” and escaping one may simply lead into another if companies lack sustainability data and strategies to guide them forward.
Bangkok Biz News is set to publish the “Sustainability 2026” supplement, outlining how Thailand can transform sustainability into a competitive strategy, focusing on:
- Climate change adaptation and the energy transition
- Green finance and the three foundational pillars for financial institutions
- The challenge of managing Scope 3 emissions, which require oversight of entire supply chains
- Practical concepts of “sustainable living” for the general public
