The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) will hold the investment event “SET in the City” in Udornthani, a major northeastern province, as part of its plan to continually expand the investor base in the country’s provinces. The event will focus on providing investment expertise to boost people’s wealth via stocks, derivatives and mutual funds.
SET joins hands with 21 leading financial institutions to hold this event by offering intensive seminars for businesses and individuals under the concept “Let stocks make money, let derivatives make profit, let mutual funds manage savings for Udornthani people,” enabling investors to manage their portfolios more prudently.
“We see investment potential in Udornthani. The province’s economy has expanded 80 percent over the last ten year and it also recently received a THB 163 million budget from the government for development. The province still has great potential in many segments, particularly in savings management and investment. This is a good opportunity for SET to enhance the investment knowledge for Udornthani residents, helping to lay a solid foundation for the province’s economy,” said SET Chief Marketing Officer Pakorn Peetathawatchai.
The financial institutions joining in the event consist of 12 securities firms, 3 asset management companies, and 6 gold futures brokers. These firms will advise and provide financial services for local people on investment planning.
