Thailand's Stock Exchange is developing a new China-ASEAN index with a 60:40 structure (60% Chinese/Hong Kong A-Shares, 40% ASEAN equities including Thai stocks) in partnership with China. The Exchange plans to launch ETF products based on this index to attract foreign institutional investment into Thailand and regional markets, capitalizing on China's policy shift toward opening capital outflows. This initiative is timed with Thailand hosting the IMF-World Bank Annual Meetings in October to pitch ASEAN market potential to global investors.
