toast1 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Is it possible for a person in Europe to buy stocks and funds in Malaysia and Thailand, without having to go through a broker? Can't find how to do this online. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wprime Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 You need a broker in Thailand. There are derivatives that can give you exposure to Thai stocks without needing a broker if you have a relationship with a bank here, or if you just want broad exposure you can use a fund in your home country that invests in Thailand.

No. 12 hours ago, wprime said: You need a broker in Thailand. Not for Malaysian stocks. A few international brokers provide access to the Bursa Malaysia, such as Saxo.

Other banks probably offer the same. If she's just buying ETFs (as opposed to stock-picking), she can just buy into Thai mutual funds that invest in foreign markets. Many banks offer these. They tend to have higher management fees (compared to US funds) so if she has a lot of capital then trading directly into US-listed ETFs would be better. If she has less capital but wants to deposit funds frequently then a local mutual fund may be better. Edited June 10, 2021 by wprime 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
