NXPO Board Member, and Independent Director, Chairman of the Technology Committee,
Member of the Executive Committee of SCBX Dr. Pailin Chuchottaworn asserted in his
keynote address, “Proof Your Climate Pledges as Grounded Governance,” that Net Zero
targets are unattainable without robust corporate governance. A Net Zero pledge,
without being embedded in the core strategy and rigorously overseen by the board,
risks being perceived as mere corporate branding. True credibility is forged through
transparent accountability mechanisms that link climate targets to business plans,
capital allocation, and executive accountability, ensuring pledges are translated
into organizational policies and practices, thereby mitigating greenwashing risks
that erode investor trust.

SET Senior Executive Vice President Dr. Soraphol Tulayasathien unveiled a three-
year strategic plan to build a credible capital market ecosystem and support Thailand’s
Net Zero transition. “Amid heightened global investor expectations, SET is accelerating
the enhancement of our data infrastructure via the ESG Data Platform and GHG data
management systems, while preparing for the development of a national carbon market
infrastructure. Our objective is to ensure climate-related disclosures from Thai
listed companies meet global standards, enabling effective investment analysis and
reinforcing confidence in the Thai capital market.”
