TFEX targets 2m investors with major overhaul of productsMr Triwit says the exchange will introduce Mini Gold Futures and short-dated SET50 Options in the second half of the year. Today margins range between 110,000 and 120,000 baht for a 10-baht gold contract, while the standard physical gold futures contract remains at 50 baht in size. TFEX is also studying other precious metals, such as copper and platinum, though these remain niche products among Thai investors. The total number of TFEX investors accounts for less than 10% of those in the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), which has more than 4 million accounts. Equity derivatives remain dominant, with SET50 Futures, SET50 Options and Single Stock Futures accounting for 77% of total trading volume in 2025.
