Bangkok, June 23 (AseanAll)  — Thai Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Phichai Chunhavajira has reassured the public and investors that Thailand’s capital market remains stable and resilient, despite rising tensions in the Middle East. While acknowledging that global conflict may influence financial markets, the Deputy Prime Minister stated that the Thai government is closely monitoring developments and has taken steps to mitigate potential impacts on the economy and investment environment.

At a meeting held on June 22,2025 by the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), two temporary measures were approved to help manage market volatility. These steps are intended to safeguard investor activity and promote stable trading without halting market operations or discouraging investment.

The first measure adjusts the allowable price ceiling and floor for securities traded on the SET, Market for Alternative Investment, and Thailand Futures Exchange. The range has been narrowed from ±30 percent to ±15 percent to reduce the risk of sharp price swings in the short term.

The second measure modifies the dynamic price band used to regulate intraday trading activity. The allowable intraday movement has been reduced from ±10 percent to ±5 percent of the most recent price, helping to contain sudden price fluctuations during trading hours.

Both measures take effect immediately and are scheduled to remain in place through June 27. Authorities continue to monitor market conditions and stand ready to make further adjustments if needed to maintain orderly financial activity during ongoing geopolitical uncertainty.
