BANGKOK - Thailand's central bank said on Saturday it did not see an impact on business or its ability to implement macroeconomic policies to safeguard financial stability after Washington kept it on a U.S. currency monitoring list.

The BOT also reiterated that Thailand has never used the exchange rate as a tool to gain an unfair trade advantage or a competitive edge over its trading partners, Assistant Governor Chantavarn Sucharitakul said in a statement.

The comment came after Washington kept Thailand on its watch list of countries that merit close attention to their currency practices.
