The value of Thailand's investment applications in the January-September period dropped 14% from a year earlier to 439 billion baht, falling from a high base in 2021, the Board of Investment (BOI) said on Monday.

The number of applications rose 8.5% in the first nine months from a year earlier, however, with the overall value down from 2021 when there were several large power generating projects worth a combined 150 billion baht, BOI head Narit Therdsteerasukdi said.
