Thailand SEC Enhances ESG Platform for Sustainable Investing

The Thailand Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has enhanced its ESG Product Platform by integrating new data on Sustainable and Responsible Investing (SRI) funds, reinforcing its commitment to sustainable finance and the country’s carbon neutral strategy. This initiative aims to improve ESG investment transparency, helping investors make informed decisions about sustainability-focused financial products. 

First launched in January 2023, the ESG Product Platform now offers detailed insights into SRI funds, categorized under tax-benefit schemes such as Retirement Mutual Funds (RMF), Super Savings Funds (SSF), and Thai ESG Funds. Investors can easily access real-time data on fund assets under management (AUM), total fund counts, and participating asset management firms. To ensure accuracy, the platform is updated daily, giving users the latest market insights. 

According to SEC Secretary-General Pornanong Budsaratragoon, the initiative aligns with the agency’s goal of promoting financial transparency and accessibility: 

“We are committed to continuously improving access to reliable ESG investment data, enabling both market participants and the public to make well-informed decisions.” 

Looking ahead, the SEC plans to expand the platform by introducing a classification system for Thai ESG Funds that invest in companies with corporate value-up plans. This move is designed to boost corporate governance, attract sustainable investments, and increase market confidence. 

This update also aligns with Thailand’s broader ESG regulatory framework, ensuring companies integrate sustainability principles into their financial strategies. By refining ESG disclosure requirements and creating clear reporting standards, the SEC is strengthening the country’s sustainable investment landscape. 

As Thailand continues to advance its carbon neutral strategy, these regulatory updates will play a vital role in driving capital towards environmentally responsible businesses and reinforcing the country’s leadership in ESG finance.
