BYDH Securities will send letters to customers seeking consent to transfer their accounts and investment portfolios to the new Beyond Securities. On October 26, employees of BYDH, formerly BYD, along with the investment portfolios and all customer accounts, will be transferred to the new Beyond Securities. This merger will lift the company's SET market share into the Top 5, and it is expected to reach the Top 3 by 2027. With the potential of roughly 50,000 former Kingsfords customer accounts, this will help drive assets under management and under advice at Beyond Securities to 100 billion baht by 2027.
