Why does everybody talk badly about Indians? I have Indian friends who love Indian food, so do I. The five straws per Coke is just BS -

Options for investing Thai baht
If you want to invest locally then look at TISCO securities. I use them for some of my Thai baht i have here. Banks charges are an awful lot more and do not have the fast access to trade. There are some very good yields on Thai stocks, but you have to pick very stable and established companies and take a longterm mentality. Some expats may not be aware that you can get very good yields several percent or more. Especially with some of the big banks. The stock market may have had a big nosedive recently, but take the longer view. You can get some mutual funds based on US. Especially for gold in GLD if you want that. However if you are in Thailland and considering gold with the money here just go and buy some gold at a reputable gold traders company that sells it and will buy it back. Stocks and mutual funds on the SET are not taxable but dividends are subject to withholding tax. If you want an investment account offshore then you need to look at available investment accounts and not banks. Banks charge too much and often have restrictive requirements. If you aim to be only UK and Thailand then you may have to consider potential problems in the future and whether an offshore account may be a good idea. If Thailand imposes tax on worldwide income, then you will either be taxed in the UK or Thailand. ANY pension income would be taxable in Thailand as income, if resident here. You should look at what the UK DTA allows, but it does not apply to pensions unless government service. If resident in Thailand and you have a good pension, you may want to consider taking a lump sum out of the pension to the UK bank at the tax free limit, or to an offshore account before any thai tax law change applies (if that happens) so that it is not an income in the next tax year and taxable in Thailand. Look ahead if there is warning. -
