Thailand's Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has proposed a policy that would allow institutional investors to invest in digital assets. This move aims to provide institutional investors with access to digital asset investments through mutual funds and private funds. The proposal includes provisions that would allow these funds to hold Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) as underlying assets. The SEC recognizes the growing interest in digital assets among institutional investors and seeks to provide a regulated framework for such investments. The SEC believes that the existing mutual fund regulations, set in 2015, need to be updated to keep pace with the evolving digital asset landscape. The proposed policy aims to facilitate Thai investors' access to digital assets while ensuring appropriate risk management and investor protection measures. The SEC will hold a public hearing on the proposal until November 8, 2023, and plans to release a final version of the proposal next year. This policy change could significantly impact the Thai digital asset market by attracting institutional capital and providing investors with greater access to this emerging asset class.
