The survey, conducted by <strong>Kearney\u2019s Global Business Policy Council<\/strong> in January 2026 and featuring insights from over 500 senior executives of leading global corporations, reveals that companies remain committed to international investment despite rising uncertainties.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"padding-top:20px;padding-right:20px;padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:20px\">After a brief hiatus from the top 25 since 2023, Thailand\u2019s return reflects a powerful recovery in executive sentiment, driven by the strategic &#8220;China+1&#8221; supply chain diversification and attractive Board of Investment (BOI) incentives in sustainable energy and digital infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-ast-global-color-5-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-aa6640cb189c0b2915907be7f875465d\" id=\"h-china-1-strategy-impact\" style=\"padding-right:20px;padding-left:20px\">China+1 Strategy Impact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"padding-top:20px;padding-right:20px;padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:20px\">The surge in Thailand\u2019s investment attractiveness largely anchored in the <strong>&#8220;China+1&#8221; strategy<\/strong>, a global shift where multinational corporations diversify their manufacturing bases beyond China to mitigate geopolitical and supply chain risks. In 2026, Thailand emerged as a prime destination of this trend, particularly in the high-tech and automotive sectors, leading to their rise<strong> <\/strong>in<strong> <\/strong>the Kearney FDI Confidence Index.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-ast-global-color-5-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-60d91212f2b087e4acd6a47eb98e0f3a\" id=\"h-china-1-strategy-impact\" style=\"padding-right:20px;padding-left:20px\">Emergence as \u201cMiddle-Power\u201d\u00a0<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"padding-top:20px;padding-right:20px;padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:20px\">The impact from China+1 strategy is evidenced by a <strong>29% increase in manufacturing FDI<\/strong> since the pandemic, according to JLL research. With Chinese investment alone growing by 35% as firms relocate production of electric vehicles (EVs) and electronics to Thailand\u2019s industrial estates. Investors no longer see Thailand as a low-cost manufacturing alternative, but as a sophisticated <strong>&#8220;middle power&#8221;<\/strong> that offers a unique combination of geopolitical neutrality, competitive infrastructure in the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC), and talented workforce. In this year\u2019s Index, <strong>34% of senior executives cited Thailand\u2019s talent workforce<\/strong> as a primary driver for their commitment. This influx of capital hasn&#8217;t just boosted volume; it has fundamentally upgraded Thailand\u2019s industrial DNA, fueling its rise to <strong>6th place on the Emerging Markets Index<\/strong> and signaling a new era of innovation-led growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"555\" src=\"https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/robotic-arms-sorting-packages-conveyor-belt-1024x555.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/robotic-arms-sorting-packages-conveyor-belt-1024x555.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/robotic-arms-sorting-packages-conveyor-belt-300x163.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/robotic-arms-sorting-packages-conveyor-belt-768x417.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/robotic-arms-sorting-packages-conveyor-belt-1200x651.webp 1200w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/robotic-arms-sorting-packages-conveyor-belt.webp 1250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-ast-global-color-5-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-f4922eee70d509537613d38c7bac8835\" id=\"h-china-1-strategy-impact\" style=\"padding-right:20px;padding-left:20px\">Ease of Doing Business<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"padding-top:20px;padding-right:20px;padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:20px\"> Central to Thailand\u2019s climb in the <strong>2026 Kearney FDI Confidence Index<\/strong> is the proactive transformation of the <strong>Board of Investment (BOI)<\/strong> from a traditional regulator into a high-efficiency investment facilitator. By 2026, the BOI has effectively dismantled long-standing administrative barriers through the expansion of the <strong>Long-Term Resident (LTR) Visa<\/strong> program and the launch of the <strong>Thailand Investment and Expat Services Center (TIESC)<\/strong>, which offers a &#8220;one-stop&#8221; digital platform for visas, work permits, and project approvals. A case study from Dempa\u2019s Asia Electronics Industry reported that these reforms have significantly lowered the cost of entry for global firms, particularly in the digital and advanced electronics sectors, where investment pledges soared by <strong>67%<\/strong> in 2025. By offering aggressive tax holidays of up to <strong>13 years<\/strong> and streamlined 100% foreign ownership rights, the BOI has not only improved the &#8220;ease of doing business&#8221; but has fundamentally signaled to the global market that Thailand is the most stable and accessible gateway for the next wave of high-tech industrialization in Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Implication-of-Real-Estate-1024x1024.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24119\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Implication-of-Real-Estate-1024x1024.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Implication-of-Real-Estate-300x300.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Implication-of-Real-Estate-150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Implication-of-Real-Estate-768x768.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Implication-of-Real-Estate-800x800.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Implication-of-Real-Estate.webp 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-ast-global-color-5-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2565cd81fef698d49745b1e9ff19b449\" id=\"h-china-1-strategy-impact\" style=\"padding-right:20px;padding-left:20px\">Implication of Real Estatea<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"padding-top:20px;padding-right:20px;padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:20px\">Thailand\u2019s climb to 20th place in the 2026 Kearney FDI Confidence Index is triggering a significant spillover effect into the real estate sector, particularly within the Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC). As the &#8220;China+1&#8221; strategy matures, the influx of global industrial giants into Chonburi, Rayong, and Chachoengsao has transitioned from pure manufacturing investment to a sustained demand for residential and commercial infrastructure. This shift is most visible in Pattaya, which has evolved from a tourism-centric hub into a strategic residential anchor for the EEC\u2019s &#8220;New S-Curve&#8221; industries. With the 2026 REIC data showing a 6.1% year-on-year increase in low-rise house prices across the EEC, investors are increasingly targeting high-end villas and branded residences to cater to the growing population of multinational executives and tech specialists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"806\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/A-New-Era-of-Confidence-INFO_ONE_PICES-806x1024.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24117\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/A-New-Era-of-Confidence-INFO_ONE_PICES-806x1024.webp 806w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/A-New-Era-of-Confidence-INFO_ONE_PICES-236x300.webp 236w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/A-New-Era-of-Confidence-INFO_ONE_PICES-768x975.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/A-New-Era-of-Confidence-INFO_ONE_PICES-1209x1536.webp 1209w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/A-New-Era-of-Confidence-INFO_ONE_PICES-1613x2048.webp 1613w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/A-New-Era-of-Confidence-INFO_ONE_PICES-630x800.webp 630w, https:\/\/www.angelrealestate.co.th\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/A-New-Era-of-Confidence-INFO_ONE_PICES-scaled.webp 2016w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 806px) 100vw, 806px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-ast-global-color-5-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-e0457308a888573214ae294e3d634763\" id=\"h-china-1-strategy-impact\" style=\"padding-right:20px;padding-left:20px\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"padding-top:20px;padding-right:20px;padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:20px\">A significant <strong>88% of senior executives<\/strong> indicated plans to increase their foreign direct investment (FDI) over the next three years, reflecting sustained confidence in the long-term opportunities of the global market. Thailand\u2019s return to the global top 20 reflects its successful evolution into a high-tech hub. Driven by the &#8220;China+1&#8221; shift, robust BOI incentives, and the rising value of the EEC, the country now offers a unique blend of stability and high-growth potential.
