New Crypto Rules In Thailand Could Require Traders To Show Income Before Opening Trading Accounts

According to a Bloomberg report, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of Thailand is likely preparing the ground to require investors to show their income or assets before opening accounts.

Ruenvadee Suwanmongkol, the secretary general of the country’s financial watchdog, pointed out that anyone who isn’t allowed to trade cryptocurrencies via their accounts can invest through licensed managers.

Moreover, the general secretary said that non-qualified crypto traders could invest via financial advisers only if they’re licensed by the SEC.

The watchdog is set to unveil its new rules on crypto trading over the week, ahead of a public hearing scheduled for March.
