The Thailand Securities & Exchange Commission opened a public consultation on proposed amendments to the rules governing how real estate investment trust (REIT) managers submit financial statements, with the stated aim of reducing reporting burdens and eliminating duplicated filings with the SEC. The proposal would require REIT managers to submit financial statements within four months of the fiscal year end, instead of the current three months, aligning the submission period with that of mutual fund management companies. It would also mandate electronic submission, with REIT managers that are mutual fund management companies filing via the securities company reporting system only (rather than via both that system and the SEC’s electronic submission system), while other REIT managers would submit through the SEC’s electronic submission system. The consultation runs until 1 June 2025.
