ADVERTISEMENT * **SEC Regulation Amendment**: The SEC has extended the renewal application period for capital market business personnel * **New Submission Period**: Applications can now be submitted from September 1st to the last business day of the year * **Online Submission**: Renewal applications must be submitted through the Online Registration Approval System (ORAP). * **Effective Date**: These changes will be effective from September 1, 2024 The SEC has amended regulations regarding the supervision of personnel in capital market businesses. The renewal application submission period has been extended from September 1st to December 15th each year to September 1st to the last business day of each year. This change aims to provide greater flexibility for business operators and capital market business personnel when applying for an approval renewal through the recently updated ORAP system. The extended submission period will take effect starting from the 2024 renewal cycle onwards. The SEC typically reviews each application within five business days of the submission date. If an application is submitted close to the approval expiration date and the applicant fails to provide all required documents or complete the compulsory training courses, the renewal approval may not be granted before the current approval expires. This could result in the approval lapsing and the inability to perform duties. Consequently, the applicant would have to apply for a new approval, as a renewal application would no longer be applicable. Therefore, the SEC recommends that all applicants carefully consider the timing of their submission to reduce the risk of not obtaining a renewal approval in time. The amendments were published in the Government Gazette on 31 May 2024 and will becomeeffective from 1 September 2024 onwards.   ### Related**Posts** ### 󠀁[Asian stocks retreat as oil rises above $100 and investors reassess global rate risks](https://www.thailand-business-news.com/markets/333019-asian-stocks-retreat-as-oil-rises-above-100-and-investors-reassess-global-rate-risks)󠁿 ### 󠀁[Asian markets hold up despite bond rout as US yields enter a structurally higher regime](https://www.thailand-business-news.com/markets/332037-asian-markets-hold-up-despite-bond-rout-as-us-yields-enter-a-structurally-higher-regime)󠁿 ### 󠀁[Local Influences and Return Chasing: Entering a New Era in Emerging Equity Markets](https://www.thailand-business-news.com/markets/329573-local-influences-and-return-chasing-entering-a-new-era-in-emerging-equity-markets)󠁿 ### 󠀁[Thailand faces a fresh LNG squeeze as Hormuz crisis pushes prices toward US$28/MMBtu](https://www.thailand-business-news.com/markets/commodities/330458-thailand-faces-a-fresh-lng-squeeze-as-hormuz-crisis-pushes-prices-toward-us28-mmbtu)󠁿 Note: * The approval expiration date for personnel in capital market businesses is December 31steach year.  **Source** : [SEC extends the renewal application period for capital market business personnel to enhance flexibility and convenience](https://www.sec.or.th/EN/Pages/News_Detail.aspx?SECID=10833&rand=113627)
