“SCBX continued to experience robust growth, reflecting the overall economic recovery and our prudent risk management, and support customers’ business recovery. At the same time, the newly established businesses under the “mothership” strategy have made significant progress. For instance, AutoX’s foray into the auto title loan market under “Chaiyo Money” brand has expanded customer base with more than Baht 3,000 million worth of loans in just a single quarter after its launch. InnovestX unveiled the first investment super app in Thailand that combines trading of traditional securities and digital securities into a unified platform. Moreover, Robinhood platform has fully transformed into a super app by adding online travel agent service, mart service, and express service as well as having secured a ride-hailing service license. In addition, SCBX received a one-off dividend payment from the Bank this quarter to implement the restructuring plan in order to become a leading financial technology group in the region,” Arthid Nanthawithaya, Chief Executive Officer of SCBX said.
