Thailand is following the pattern set by Hong Kong and other Asian jurisdictions: open the ETF wrapper, but restrict it to the two assets with the deepest institutional liquidity. The custody and exposure requirements matter more than the listing itself, since they determine which local intermediaries can actually participate. The open question is whether the Oct. 16 framework attracts meaningful product launches or remains a narrow approval that few issuers use.
