The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) has revised securities exchange regulations to suit the current business environment and better align with international practices, improve convenience, and widen investment opportunities to support a new trading system that will be deployed in the first quarter of this year.
SET President Pakorn Peetathawatchai said SET has adjusted related securities trading regulations to be in line with the forthcoming trading system developed, and reviewed and revised the existing regulations to be in line with the present business circumstance and more consistent with international practices.
The important amendments are summarized as follows:
Regulations on equilibrium price will be adjusted to be in line with the new trading system. The equilibrium price can fall outside ceiling and floor but not exceeding ±1 tick while the previous regulations require the price to be within the range not exceeding the ceiling and floor.
The P (pause) sign will replace the SP (suspension) sign in the case that stocks are subject to market surveillance measures governing abnormal securities trading to provide clarity for investors.
