Chief Financial Officers (CFOs), as well as finance
and accounting practitioners of listed companies, play
key roles in strengthening financial stability of businesses.
SET therefore raises the performance standards of such
personnel through activities such as
“Strategic CFO in
Capital Markets”
training to develop strategy management
and financial skills to be ready for the changing economy
while creating business opportunities. CFOs will be able
to learn their roles and responsibilities and how to
develop team and system efficiency through experience-
sharing by experts as well as executives from listed
companies, auditors and financial advisors. In 2015 there
were 50 CFOs and CFO trainees who participated in the
training.
SET is a qualification certifying agency for the
widely-recognized Certified Investment & Securities
Analyst (CISA). SET provides intensive training for CISA
Level 1 for practitioners of finance and accounting of
listed companies so they can apply their experience in
investment analysis and decision- making in practice.
This will help boost the efficiency of the financial
management of listed companies. In 2015 there were 81
personnel from participating listed companies taking this
training program.
In addition, to meet the increasing demand, SET
has also partnered with the Thai Listed Companies
Association to nurture potential investor relations and
finance practitioners. SET has therefore launched the
Young Corporate Financial Officer (YFO) project consisting
of 10-day workshops. The students were evaluated
based on their project presentations at the end of the
course. In 2015, the second year of the project, there
were 75 participants from 19 universities nationwide.
