Thai stocks are poised for continued growth in the fourth quarter, driven by incremental investments in the state-run Vayupak Fund and tax-saving Thai ESG funds, according to the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET).
SET President Asadej Kongsiri revealed that retail investor participation has surged, now accounting for 52% of trades, up from just under 50% in the preceding months.
An increasing number of younger investors are showing interest in the Thai stock market. Over 2,000 new investment accounts were opened during SET roadshows in Chiang Mai and Khon Kaen in the third quarter, said Asadej.
“The SET remains committed to broadening the retail investor base, enhancing financial literacy, and facilitating easier trading for both institutional and foreign investors.”
