For years, banks have been using both their own CCC centers, as well as third-party cash centers like ours for their cash-in-transit operations. We were selected based on our high standards for security and operational efficiency, which is aligned with the government’s long-term plan to consolidate all resources in this industry for greater efficiency and lower costs. By managing Bank of Thailand’s CCCs on its behalf, we’re playing a key role in consolidating business operations across the region, and also upgrading our facilities without additional investment.
