Mitihoon – Bangkok, 2 October 2026 – The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is co-organizing World Investor Week 2026 (WIW 2026) to promote financial and investment literacy among investors and the general public. This year marks the special occasion of the 10th anniversary of WIW, a global campaign supported by the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO), through which capital market regulators worldwide jointly promote investor education and protection to raise investors’ awareness of finance and investment.
Mrs. Pornanong Budsaratragoon, SEC Secretary-General, said: “The World Investor Week 2026 activities organized by the SEC this year are aligned with IOSCO’s guidelines, which focus on the three primary themes: Investor Resilience, Digital Deception, and Scam Alert. The initiative aims to promote investor resilience by enabling investors to make investment decisions based on information and facts, critically assess investment-related information encountered online, and avoid falling victim to investment scams in the digital environment.”
The WIW 2026 activities will be held online during 5–11 October 2026. The public and interested persons can follow the activities via Facebook: Start-To-Invest, under the theme “Invest Right, Future Bright.” The initiative aims to encourage the public to build a sound foundation in finance and investment, assess their own risk tolerance, maintain discipline in long-term investment, recognize behavioral biases that may affect investment decisions, and use reliable tools or channels to verify information before investing. These efforts are intended to help the public become Smart Investors who understand risks, know their rights, and do not fall victim to investment scams, in line with the SEC’s goal of promoting financial well-being among Thai people through long-term investment.
Throughout the week, the public will have access to educational materials and activities from the SEC and capital market business operators, covering investment fundamentals, investor resilience, awareness of behavioral biases in investment, and protection against investment scams in the digital era. In addition, a special podcast in collaboration with the Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau will share approaches to dealing with emerging forms of investment scams.
In addition, the SEC will hold an award presentation ceremony for the “Public Empowerment through Capital Market Knowledge Initiative,” Phase 2, 2026, during WIW 2026. Interested persons can follow the event on 9 October 2026, from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., via Facebook: Start-To-Invest. The ceremony aims to recognize organizations and individuals that have played a role in promoting financial and investment literacy among the public, as part of the SEC’s mission to protect investors and enhance the public’s financial and investment knowledge, thereby strengthening the foundation of the Thai capital market for long-term stability and sustainability.
