The project consists on an unfunded Risk Sharing Facility (“RSF”) of up to US$150 million equivalent in Thai Baht to be provided to TMB Bank Public Ltd. (“TMB” or the “Bank”) in order to support the Bank to further extend loans to the SME sector in Thailand.
TMB was established in Thailand in 1957 as Thai Military Bank to offer financial services to members of the Thai military.

The Bank was listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand (“SET”) in 1983 and transformed into a public limited company in 1994.

(“ING Bank”) are the major shareholders of TMB holding 25.94% and 25.04%, respectively.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF IFC
The Compliance Advisor Ombudsman (CAO) is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by an IFC or MIGA- financed project. If you submit a complaint to the CAO, they may assist you in resolving a dispute with the company and/or investigate to assess whether the IFC is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. If you want to submit a complaint electronically, you can email the CAO at CAO@worldbankgroup.org. You can learn more about the CAO and how to file a complaint at http://www.cao-ombudsman.org/
