The five new companies are Delta Electronics, Gulf Energy, Kasikorn Bank, Advanced Info Service and Siam Cement
SINGAPORE, 1 April 2024 – Phillip Securities, a member of PhillipCapital, has announced the introduction of five new Thai blue-chip companies to be part of the Thai-Singapore Depository Receipts (Thai-SDR) Linkage today, following the success of the initial batch of SGX Thai-SDR launched last year.
The five new Thai blue-chip companies are Delta Electronics, Gulf Energy, Kasikorn Bank, Advanced Info Service and Siam Cement, adding to the original list of Airports of Thailand, CP ALL, and PTEP. With this development, the total number of Thai-listed securities available on SGX will increase to eight. This expansion will provide investors with a broader range of stocks to diversify their portfolios and refine their investment strategies.
This collaborative effort between Phillip Securities and SGX Group has enabled investors to trade securities listed on other exchanges directly on SGX, significantly enhancing accessibility and investment opportunities.
Mr Luke Lim, Managing Director of PhillipCapital, said: “At PhillipCapital, we are fuelled by our desire to serve our Singapore investors better, and we recognise that today, investors have a wide range of investment choices as well as high expectations on potential trading opportunities. The Thai-SDR is one such interesting investment proposition, and it offers Singapore investors new opportunities to invest in the Thai market. We had launched Thai-SDR in May 2023, and we are adding more Thai companies for our clients’ selection.”
Given Thailand’s robust manufacturing base and projected gross domestic product (GDP) growth, the country has emerged as an appealing destination for investors seeking exposure to its dynamic economy. The availability of Thai-SDRs on the SGX platform offers investors access to some of its region’s largest conglomerates, presenting an attractive opportunity for those keen on investing in prominent Thai companies.
