It has been more than a decade since Cambodia entered the capital markets by establishing the Cambodian Stock Exchange (CSX). This initiative has provided businesses with an alternative funding source, reducing their reliance on traditional financing options such as loans from local or offshore banks. Since its inception, the CSX has seen a steady increase in daily transaction values, indicating significant development in the sector. This progress has been bolstered by strong government support, exemplified by various tax incentive schemes designed to encourage investment and participation in the market.
In addition to the companies listed on the market for issuing both equity and debt securities, other important players, such as bond guarantors, have emerged as catalysts to further bolster confidence in the market. Recent initiatives from the government, such as the implementation of a regulatory sandbox and the introduction of green bonds, have also played a crucial role in fostering innovation and sustainability within the capital market. These efforts collectively contribute to a more robust and dynamic financial ecosystem in Cambodia.
