Bangkok--Dec 20--SET Corporate Communications
Mrs. Nongram Wongwanich, President of the Thailand Securities Depository Co., Ltd. (TSD), a co-host of “Last Chance for Tax Reduction Via LTF-RMF” Fair, disclosed that there were about 7,000 visitors to the Fair during the 3-day event from Dec.17 — 19, 2004. The total units of long-term funds (LTFs) and retirement mutual funds (RMFs) sold were approximately worth THB200 mln. Attendees actively participated, especially on Saturday and Sunday, when the greatest numbers flocked in.
“Those participating in the Fair are serious investors. Many of them have bought units from more than one fund. Some invested in 3 funds with more than THB100,000 investments. The seminar sessions held two times daily were also completely full, making the SET’s otherwise large Exhibition Hall look quite small.
Due to the success of this Fair, participating asset management firms have urged the TSD to host the Fair again. In response to the numerous requests, the organization of a 2nd LTF-RMF promotion fair before the end of this year is currently under consideration by the organizers,” Mrs. Nongram said.
