Watchpoints 2025-2026
Brokerage cycle
SET trading-volume dependency
Phatra revenue is sensitive to SET daily trading volume; 2024 average daily turnover approximately $1.3-55B versus pre-2021 peak of $2.32B. Revenue recovery tied to retail sentiment and foreign-fund rebalancing.
M&A pipeline
Thai corporate M&A activity
Thai M&A advisory revenue is lumpy and deal-cycle dependent. Family-business succession and SET privatisation-adjacent transactions are the most reliable pipeline; CP Group restructuring and energy-sector M&A are key 2025-2026 watches.
