- Ratchthani Leasing Public Company Limited engages primarily in providing hire-purchase and financial lease services for commercial and personal vehicles throughout Thailand, focusing on new and used cars including trucks, commercial vehicles, luxury cars, motorcycles, and taxis. Its main products and services include hire-purchase loans for new and used automobiles; refinancing and car title loans; financial leasing; loans to car dealerships through floor plan financing; auto and property insurance brokerage services; and after-sales services such as annual car registration renewal, insurance policy renewal coordination, car inspections for tax purposes, auctions, and specialized services like "Truck to You." The company also offers credit services related to vehicle registration and insurance for its customers. Established in 1988 and headquartered in Bangkok, Ratchthani Leasing operates as a subsidiary of Thanachart SPV1 Co., Ltd.
In the past two years, Ratchthani Leasing has expanded its service footprint regionally within Thailand, enhancing its product offerings by securing authorization from the Ministry of Finance to engage in personal loans and nano-finance under regulatory supervision, initially focusing on title loans to improve customer liquidity. The company continues to invest in technological development to increase operational efficiency and service delivery. It also pursues strategic growth by expanding branch networks to better serve diverse geographic markets and customer segments, including retail clients and car dealers. Its business segments are categorized into new car loans, used car loans, and ancillary services, underscoring a comprehensive financial service model tailored to the automotive sector.
Ratchthani Leasing’s evolving service portfolio reflects an emphasis on integrating complementary services such as insurance brokerage—both non-life and life insurance—to offer one-stop financial solutions to customers. The company maintains a market focus on financing vehicles primarily from Japanese manufacturers like Toyota, Honda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, and Isuzu, targeting both individual retail consumers and commercial enterprises. This integrated approach, combined with ongoing technological and geographic expansion, positions Ratchthani Leasing as a significant player in Thailand’s automotive finance and leasing industry. The company remains listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand under ticker THANI and reports audited consolidated financial statements annually.
