Thai regulator tightens market oversight to curb 'grey capital'The Securities and Exchange ​Commission office in Chatuchak district, Bangkok. (Photo: Pornprom Satrabhaya)Thailand’s ⁠Securities and Exchange ​Commission (SEC) is stepping up measures ​to curb ‌grey capital, mule accounts and investment scams, calling it a national priority. The regulator will step up scrutiny of major shareholders, ultimate ​controllers ⁠and funding sources behind licensed firms. On digital assets, ⁠it will improve money-trail tracking through stronger monitoring tools, transfer rules and oversight of stablecoins, it ⁠said. The SEC will work ​more closely with other government agencies to share information, trace suspicious funds, block illegal platforms and ‌strengthen confidence ⁠in Thailand's capital ​market.
