Bangkok, September 12, 2014 - The SEC suspended {A}, a securities investment consultant of Globlex Securities Company Limited, for trading on a securities trading account of the client without client's order and not taping investment advices and client's order.

Following a report on client?s complaint filed by Globlex Securities Company Limited, the SEC probed into the case and found that {A} sent a trading order from the client's securities trading account without her client's order. {A} admitted doing such action, reasoning that she was unable to contact the client at the time the share prices were within the range which the client previously expressed interest in. She thought that the shares could be sold to take profit in the similar manner as the client's purchase made in the morning session. Besides, {A} admitted that she advised the client to sell the other securities to settle the buying order which the client agreed and asked her to submit the selling order via mobile phone. Accordingly, there was no record of client's selling order.

Making trading decisions of securities in the client's account without the client's order and not taping investment advices and client's orders were in violation of the Notifications of Capital Market Supervisory Board concerning personnel in the capital market*, the SEC therefore suspended {A} from her duty as the approved securities investment consultant for 2 months. Taking into account that {A} had already been suspended by her employer for one month; the suspension imposed by the SEC shall remain for additional one month, effective from September 15, 2014.
