While domestic equities still lack strong catalysts, the firm sees selective recovery opportunities. In response, GBS is broadening its investment product suite and expanding access to derivatives and offshore assets to better serve retail and younger investors.

The brokerage reported that assets under management (AUM) in its wealth business reached 10 billion baht in 2025, up from roughly 6-7 billion baht at the start of the year. The increase was driven by a growing high-net-worth (HNW) client base and a rebound in overseas investment funds.

Thanapisal Koohapremkit, chief executive of GBS, said the firm's wealth management business continues to deliver solid organic growth, supported by rising demand from affluent clients and improving conditions in global markets where they are invested.
