AIA Group Announces THB10.5 billion Property Investments in Bangkok
Recognising that sales would slow, forward-thinking companies took the opportunity to focus on their fundamentals and improve their balance sheets. This was the strategy of Hubert Viriot, CEO of the luxury developer Raimon Land, who was appointed in the midst of the crisis.
Like Raimon Land, Prinsiri did not lower its prices : it was not all bad news, however, as the recovery soon took hold in the second half and by the fourth quarter GDP posted 5.8% growth and many developers reached their annual sales targets.

Property tax incentives implemented by the government of Thailand to stimulate the sluggish market expired on May 30 as it was no longer a need for the tax breaks as the economy was recovering, the property sector had grown by 10% over the past year, and developers’ margins were improving. Governments have used tax incentives to stimulate the property market during most economic slumps since the 1997 Asian financial crisis.
