# Bangkok Post - SCB predicts gradual baht decline

> Siam Commercial Bank forecasts the baht will weaken to 33 per dollar by the fourth quarter of 2026, from about 31.50 in the first quarter. The bank cites continued foreign inflows into Thai equities and bonds, offset by a firm US dollar and tariff-related uncertainty.
