The Thailand Securities & Exchange Commission has amended its rules for asset management companies (AMCs) handling cases where investment unit values or prices are calculated incorrectly, adding flexibility in how mutual funds and investors can be compensated. The changes allow monetary compensation as an option alongside adjustments to investment unit holdings and permit compensation above the actual loss incurred. Under the revised framework, an AMC may use its own funds to compensate the affected mutual fund as an alternative to reducing the number of investment units held by buyers or sellers who received excess benefits from the mispricing. Compensation may also exceed the actual loss, including by taking opportunity costs into account. The amendments follow a Q3/2025 public hearing in which respondents supported the proposal, and the revised regulations have been published in the Government Gazette with effect from 1 February 2026.
