Abstract:GMO-Z com Securities Thailand to cease operations in 2025 due to financial challenges, following margin trading issues and ongoing deficits.
GMO Financial Holdings, Inc. has announced that its Thai subsidiary, GMO-Z com Securities (Thailand) Public Company Limited, will cease all business operations. After years of financial difficulties, the Board of Directors reached a resolution on January 27, 2025. The subsidiary, which began operations in November 2017, had severe issues after an unfair trade event in November 2022. The problem, which was linked to replacement securities used as collateral for margin trading, resulted in substantial losses owing to overexposure to large-scale clients and specific equities.
Despite efforts to recover, such as suspending new loans and implementing stricter risk controls, the company continued to lose money. The company decided to terminate its margin trading service, which was a critical component of its business, in December 2024. While it investigated alternatives such as cash stock trading and other business prospects, profitability remained elusive. This resulted in the difficult decision to dismiss and liquidate the subsidiary, putting an end to its operations in Thailand.
