Thai SEC Targets Tokenised Funds and Bonds in 2026 Roadmap

Thailand tokenised funds and digital assets are set to take centre stage under the securities regulator’s 2026 capital market roadmap, as oversight is tightened to protect investors.

The Securities and Exchange Commission said the plan will prioritise tokenised funds and bonds, crypto exchange-traded funds including spot products, and upgraded digital market infrastructure.

Secretary-General Pornanong Budsaratragoon said the roadmap aims to cut costs for intermediaries and broaden access to diversified investment products, while enhancing disclosure and risk management through open-data frameworks.

The SEC is also exploring platforms to integrate carbon credits into market infrastructure.

Thailand currently has 23 asset managers overseeing about 2,270 mutual funds.
