Earlier in July, the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) of Thailand, which also regulates Forex trading in the country, granted the company a Type-A license for its securities business segment. An additional Type Sor-1 license has been granted to the brokerage, allowing it to provide derivatives trading.
