Zen Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 I heard that if foreigners wanna maintain control over the company they should hold their 49% shares in terms of Ordinary Shares, and let the Thais hold the 51% in terms of Preference Shares. I would like to know if how safe is this method and what are the risks? Are there still any possibility of being "taken over" by the Thais with this kind of share holding structure? Thank you.

Chang_paarp Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 This is the current method of protecting your investment if you do not have trusted folk to look after your interests. It is currently legal, but open to interpretation by some agencies. In the event that the proposed Foreign Business Act gets up this structure will no longer be legal but that is a big IF.
