Kasikornbank Public (OTCMKTS:KPCPY), commonly known as KBank, is one of Thailand’s leading commercial banks. Founded in 1945 as Thai Farmers Bank, it adopted its current name in 2003 to reflect a broader range of customers beyond the agricultural sector. Headquartered in Bangkok, the bank has grown into a full-service financial institution serving individual, small and medium-sized enterprise (SME), and corporate clients throughout Thailand.
The bank offers a comprehensive suite of products and services, including corporate and SME banking, retail banking, consumer finance, private banking, and wealth management. Its corporate segment provides lending, trade finance and cash management solutions, while its retail division delivers savings and deposit accounts, personal loans, mortgages and credit cards. In addition, KBank operates in the investment banking space, offering underwriting, M&A advisory and capital market services, as well as treasury and foreign exchange solutions.
Digital banking has been a strategic focus for Kasikornbank, with its flagship mobile platform, K PLUS, enabling customers to perform a wide range of transactions, including fund transfers, bill payments and investment services. The bank has also invested in fintech partnerships and developed e-wallet and blockchain applications to enhance its digital offerings and support real-time payment ecosystems across Southeast Asia.
While the bulk of its operations are centered in Thailand, Kasikornbank maintains a growing international presence with branches and subsidiaries in Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, Laos, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore and Vietnam, as well as representative offices in Japan, London and New York.
