Thailand plans to revise key investment regulations and SEC rules to attract broader investor participation and unlock capital flows.
The government aims to update outdated rules that restrict stock market investment for life insurance firms and institutional funds, enabling potential market growth.
Regulatory reforms include streamlining rules on treasury stock and enforcing penalties for naked short selling. There are discussions on empowering the SEC with more regulatory power.
Thailand is also embracing digital finance innovations like G-Tokens for buying government bonds and exploring cryptocurrency integration into the financial sector to enhance market attractiveness.
