"I am looking for ways to participate in Thailand & the Philippines via IG Index, but I don't see them directly listed - and thoughts on how to do this? Is there an ETF there that you would suggest? Many thanks"

Eoin Treacy's view Thank you for this question which others may also be asking. As far as I know it is not possible to spread-bet the Thai or Philippine stock market indices. The only vehicle I know of, quoted by IG Index, that offers relatively pure exposure to the Thai market is the Aberdeen New Thai Investment Trust.
