Bangkok--15 Sep--SET
“Last week, The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) had joined the roadshow with Capital Nomura Securities PCL and Nomura Securities to provide information on the government’s stimulus plans, Thailand’s improving economic situation, the Thai Capital Market Development Plan, and ASEAN Linkage project, including new investment tools for institutional investors, in Tokyo, Japan, aiming at building confidence of investors and stimulating investment in the Thai capital market. There were 14 fund managers from 12 companies joining the roadshow, with total assets under management of THB40 trillion (USD 1,185.30 billion),” revealed SET President Patareeya Benjapolchai.
“Japan’s institutional investors suggested that they need new investment tools to facilitate them with more investment in the Thai capital market, since there are numerous investors interested in NVDR but there are limitations on investment in their own country. Therefore, new investment tools will help facilitate Japan’s institutional investors to be able to invest more in the Thai capital market, which will help increase trading volume from Japan,” continued Ms. Patareeya.
Moreover, three listed companies joining the roadshow received great attention from Japanese investors, namely Bumrungrad Hospital PCL (BH), Precious Shipping PCL (PSL), and Thai Union Frozen Products PCL (TUF). The three companies had 29 meetings with institutional investors, which was a great opportunity for listed companies to directly give information to investors.
