This collaboration with Prime Zone is considered an extension of BAM’s asset management approach. It aims to enhance the efficiency of managing NPLs and NPAs to enable them to be revitalized and generate tangible income. Furthermore, it aims to increase access to housing for the general public by repurposing abandoned properties through development and renovation, benefiting both society and the economy.

Ms. Soraya Sathirakoset, Acting CEO and CFO of Rabbit Holdings Public Company Limited and Director of Prime Zone, stated that the collaboration with BAM is a joint effort to set new standards for the Asset Management Company ecosystem.

Prime Zone assists in asset sales, giving debtors the opportunity to quickly close their debt obligations and re-establish a stable life.

The collaboration with BAM targets buyers who prioritize value and properties in quality locations at accessible prices. Buyers will have the opportunity to inspect the property’s condition, environment, and management before making a purchase decision.
