The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (HKEX), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX), has announced the addition of the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET) as a Recognized Stock Exchange (RSE). This new recognition allows public limited companies with a primary listing on SET’s main market to apply for a secondary listing in Hong Kong.
With this move, the number of RSEs in Southeast Asia now includes the Indonesian Stock Exchange, Singapore Exchange, and now SET, expanding investment opportunities in the region.
Katherine Ng, Head of Listing at HKEX, expressed enthusiasm about the new partnership: “We are pleased to welcome the Stock Exchange of Thailand as a Recognized Stock Exchange. This addition will provide our investors with greater opportunities to access quality companies across ASEAN, particularly in sectors like energy, healthcare, and technology.” She added, “SET’s inclusion will facilitate cross-listings, enabling Thai companies to tap into a broader regional and global investor base. This strengthens HKEX’s market offering, allowing us to provide a more diverse range of investment opportunities.”
Ng further emphasized that HKEX remains committed to enhancing its market appeal and bolstering Hong Kong’s standing as Asia’s premier international financial hub.
