Thai Bourse To Allow “General Mandate” For Capital Increasing

Date 16/02/2011

Subject to Securities and Exchange Commission approval, The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) will allow listed firms to ask shareholders for a general mandate to raise funds by issuing new shares as a secondary offering. Under a general mandate, shareholders authorize the company’s board in either Annual General Meeting or Extra General Meeting to decide on the details (e.g., capital increasing objectives and price) of each issuance, rather than having to go through a shareholder meeting each time. Using a general mandate will facilitate capital injection, cut costs and help the company to manage its capital structure to go in line with current economic conditions while still protecting shareholders’ interests.
