That shortfall would be 60 billion baht short of the bank's full-year loan target of 203 billion, said Mr Chatchai. In 2019, GH Bank's loan target was determined from an average of mortgages during the past three years, he said. Mr Chatchai said housing loan customers of state-owned banks are comprised of different groups than mortgage borrowers of commercial banks. GH Bank's total loan value was 53.5 billion baht for the first four months this year. The bank has approved more than 6,300 applicants with total loans worth 4.3 billion baht.
