Webull, a US-based trading platform, acquired Pi Securities for 3.2 billion baht in August 2025 to combine digital technology with 50+ years of local brokerage expertise. The deal aims to scale combined assets under management to 200 billion baht, positioning Thai retail investors for international markets—particularly US stocks and options—via enhanced tools (Nasdaq TotalView, real-time data, unique portfolio-splitting feature) and high-net-worth services unavailable from competitors locally.
