Published on 28/11/2025
» SCB WEALTH under Siam Commercial Bank (SCB) recently hosted the SCB WEALTH Holistic Wealth Forum 2025 under the theme “Storm Shift”, bringing together top-tier local and global experts to provide clients with a strategic “investment compass” to weather global economic storms. Looking ahead to 2026, the forum identified it as a pivotal year marked by major disruptions—from geopolitical tensions and AI-driven technological shifts to evolving global economic structures. Despite these challenges, Thailand is seen as entering a “golden opportunity” phase, supported by surging foreign investment figures from the Board of Investment (BOI). Foreign investment and capital markets are accelerating efforts to transition Thailand into the New Economy, driven by the Third Wave of innovation in AI, semiconductors, and data centres. BlackRock highlighted AI infrastructure as a major force poised to reshape the global economy. Meanwhile, Hua Seng Heng projected that gold prices will remain on an upward trajectory in 2026, with potential to reach USD 4,700. SCB Fund Management (SCBFM) forecasted Thai baht volatility within a range of THB 31–33 per USD. The forum concluded with insights on family office strategy and the importance of establishing a family constitution to ensure long-term wealth preservation. Experts emphasised the need for neutral mediation mechanisms to protect family wealth from internal disruptions and promote sustainable legacy planning.
