Criteria revision

The Securities and Exchange Commission has revised the criteria for preparing turnover lists to reflect the market environment better, with the first new-style list to be published on December 4.

“Under the revised criteria, all shares with a high turnover ratio will be put on the turnover list, as the limit on the top 50 SET-listed shares and top five MAI-listed shares will be removed,” secretary-general Vorapol Socatiyanurak said yesterday. The listing of any shares on the turnover list will also result in the listing of warrants for those shares. A less complex formula will be used for calculations without causing a major difference in the outcome. 
The turnover list was launched  to provide investors with information for their decision-making.
