Reason for this Visit

In the global financial landscape, Southeast Asia is rapidly emerging as a key growth area for forex trading. In recent years, user growth rates for forex trading platforms in this region have generally exceeded 30%. With the popularization of digital finance and the gradual improvement of the regulatory environment, Southeast Asia is accelerating its transformation from a “market with potential” to a “strategic market,” becoming a focal point for global forex brokers competing to establish a presence.

Among these, Thailand, leveraging its young user base and policy support, demonstrates strong appeal. Data from the Thai Securities and Exchange Commission shows that local forex trading accounts grew by 42% year-on-year in 2024, with over 60% of these accounts belonging to young users, indicating vibrant market activity. Simultaneously, the Thai government and central bank are actively promoting upgrades in financial technology and payment systems. This has not only enhanced the convenience and transparency of trading but also fostered a safer and more efficient environment for both investors and platforms. These initiatives are steadily establishing Thailand as a core hub for forex trading in Southeast Asia, attracting global brokers to accelerate their deployment.

Currently, several international platforms have established local teams in Thailand, offering Thai-language customer service, local payment solutions, and educational courses to speed up localization. Local brokers are also rising, driving market diversification. Thailand is steadily evolving into a significant growth engine for the global forex market.
