Thailand’s SEC to host top Securities Commissions meet in 2022
The SEC has been selected as the host of the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO)s’ annual meeting in 2022, a delighted Ruenvadee Suwanmongkol, secretary-general of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), announced on Monday, noting that the event would coincide with SEC’s 30th anniversary.
The meeting will be a great opportunity for Thailand to demonstrate its potential as a leader in regional and global markets, build up the confidence of Thai and foreign investors, support academic opportunities, improve perspectives from renowned experts from around the world at the seminar platform, and expand public and private sectors’ network to boost the economy, tourism, industry, exhibition and culture of Thailand.
The selection of Thailand to host the IOSCO meeting is in line with the 20-Year National Strategic Plan to increase competitiveness by expanding trading and investing opportunities and creating a blueprint for Thailand’s proactive international commerce to become a key player on the global market.
In line with the selection criterion for member countries wanting to host the meeting three years in advance, the SEC submitted its application to IOSCO on June 7. The meeting is usually attended by 600 ISOCO member organizations in capital market management and 225 related organisations from 140 countries around the world.
