Getting ready for the aging society
SET aims to enable people in each age group to have personal financial planning and management skills in order to
effectively prepare for retirement and build immunity for Thailand before it becomes an aging society. In particular,
SET envisions that working people should have the skills to manage and allocate income and savings efficiently.
SET has therefore initiated a financial planning project to campaign for working people to have systematic financial
planning skills, spend wisely and turn savings into investments for retirement. SET focuses on promoting investing
understanding to change the behavior of each age group through various media, both online and offline, such as
social media, advertising, TV programs and roadshows in central business districts. In 2015 the project reached more
than 2.31 million people.
SET IC: Investment learning center for all
SET is committed to creating equal opportunity to access to investment
knowledge for all. Access has never been more convenient and faster,
as SET, in collaboration with seven universities, has set up a SET
Investment Center9 (SET IC) under the theme “Your Investment
Center: Investment learning center for all”. In 2015, there were 6,561
visitors and users. All the information and knowledge from SET IC
activities are available on its website.
SET believes that promoting investment understanding will help build
immunity for investors by equipping them with the knowledge that is
necessary and sufficient to analyze and make prudent investment
decisions, which will create sustainable wealth for investors and the
capital market as a whole.
