आंकड़ों में
Dr. Sornpol Tulyasathien, the new Secretary General of the Thailand Government Pension Fund (GPF), who started his role on 1 July, provided evaluations regarding the future of the Thailand stock exchange and investment strategies. Sornpol is continuing preparations for a new strategic plan to present to the board of directors in mid-August.
The fund manager emphasized that foreign investors' desire to move away from US markets and artificial intelligence-focused assets to diversify their risks creates a significant opportunity for Thailand. In this process, it is noted that an increase in Foreign Direct Investments (FDI), particularly in the fields of clean energy and data centers, could integrate the country into the global artificial intelligence supply chain. Furthermore, it was stated that political stability and an increase in corporate profitability are also of critical importance for the return of foreign capital.
Managing assets of approximately 1.5 trillion Thailand baht, the fund maintains a 50 percent balance between its assets in risky and risk-free investments. Dr. Sornpol announced that they will closely monitor three key macroeconomic risks in the upcoming period: geopolitical conflicts, the US midterm elections, and concerns over a potential bubble in the artificial intelligence sector.
