PRINC Health The proposed investment is for up to Thai Baht(THB) 909 million (equivalent to US$ 30 million) in common shares of Principal Capital Public Company Limited (PRINC or the Company). The investment will support PRINCs growth plans of building a network of hospitals providing tertiary and secondary care to middle income patients across Thailand. Economy-wide effects:
Extend access to quality healthcare in underserved regions:  The Project responds to a gap in the provision of healthcare services in Northeast, North, and Southern regions of the country which continue to lag behind the rest of the country. The availability of hospital beds is currently at an average of less than 1.9 per 1,000 population in the Northeastern and Southern regions. This bed ratio is far lower than the 4.33 in Bangkok and is below the median for most developing countries.  The Project aims to fill the gaps in the healthcare system by supporting the creation of a high-quality tertiary and secondary care hospital network targeted at middle and lower-middle income patients in the targeted regions

Stakeholder effects:
Job creation, training and development: The Project is expected to add around 2,000 full-time medical professionals to an existing staff count of 2,000. PRINC plans to make significant investments in training and development of manpower particularly for the nursing staff. The Company is collaborating with various academic and professional institutions to develop customised training programmes and setting up of dedicated training centres for medical professionals. These measures will increase supply of qualified and trained healthcare professionals in the regions outside Bangkok and contribute towards strengthening the overall healthcare infrastructure of the country.
