Like the majority of southeast Asian banking sectors, Thailand has emerged from the financial crisis remarkably resilient. From 2004 to 2008, Thailand's Financial Sector Master Plan Phase I strengthened the banking system by bringing much-needed consolidation.
The Thai government and industry regulators are now doubling efforts by introducing the Financial Sector Master Plan Phase II (FSMPII) and the Capital Market Development Master Plan (CMDM), with the aim to drive further reforms.
In light of these new plans, The Banker, in association with the Thai Ministry of Finance, proudly present Finance Thailand 2010.
This half-day event will evaluate these initiatives, facilitate discussion on the future of the Thai financial system, and address critical questions on Capital Market Development and the ambitions of a broader pan-ASEAN vision.
These include:
- What opportunities does the FSMPII present to both domestic and foreign institutions?
- How can the Bank of Thailand reduce costs while boosting infrastructure and financial access?
- How can the twin aims of competition and consolidation be achieved?
- How important is the liberalisation of the capital markets to boosting the country’s economic growth?
- Who will be the winners and losers of the CMDM?
- What benefits will greater pan-ASEAN capital markets integration bring?
- What are the implications for pan-ASEAN supervision?
Thailand’s Finance Minister, Korn Chatikavanij, will also give a keynote address on the future outlook for banking and finance in Thailand and be presented with The Banker’s prestigious Global Finance Minister of the Year Award.
Attendance is essential for those working within the Banking and Financial Services sectors.
