The fund focuses exclusively on royalties, providing Thai investors with access to an alternative asset class that generates steady income independent of traditional markets, said SCBAM chief executive Narongsak Plodmeechai.

The fund's initial offering runs from Sept 15-24, with aminimum investment of 50,000 baht.

“Amid ongoing global economic challenges, ranging from US trade policies and central bank interest rate movements to China’s economic slowdown and geopolitical uncertainty, traditional assets such as equities and bonds have faced heightened volatility)’ he said.

These conditions have fuelled growing investor interest in alternative assets, particularly royalties, which offer predictable, long-term income streams.
