Supervisory Framework

The Bank of Thailand (BOT) is Thailand's central bank, supervising all banks and finance companies.

The Ministry of Finance (MOF) oversees public finance, taxation and the treasury. Through its main agencies, it formulates economic, monetary and fiscal policies as well as public sector borrowing and debt management policies.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) supervises both primary and secondary securities markets. It regulates securities companies and licenses bond dealers. The SEC links below outline reporting and disclosure requirements. One SEC requirement is that all debt transactions be reported to Thai Bond Market Association (ThaiBMA).

The ThaiBMA operates the secondary bond market, registers dealers, and monitors all market activity. It has self-regulatory functions, and has instituted several standards and conventions for bond trading. It collates all debt market data and is responsible for determining the Government Bond Yield Curve.

The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) operates the Bond Electronic Exchange (BEX). The SET is a self-regulatory organization that governs its members' conduct and member companies in securities dealings. It is also responsible for marketplace surveillance. The SET supervises and enforces disclosure standards for listed companies.
