Cambodia Securities Regulation: SERC Grants License for Securities Brokerage

Background

The Securities and Exchange Regulator of Cambodia (SERC) is the national authority responsible for licensing and oversight of securities firms in Cambodia.

A securities firm license authorizes a company to conduct securities brokerage operations and provide trade execution services on behalf of clients in the Cambodian securities sector.

Licensing and registration of market intermediaries form a core element of Cambodia’s market governance, and the SERC maintains a public list of authorized firms to promote transparency for investors and counterparties.

Scope of Application

This license decision applies to companies seeking to conduct securities brokerage business within Cambodia’s regulated securities market. The granted authorization covers brokerage activities as defined by SERC licensing criteria and is tied to the licensed entity’s registered business address.

Key Provisions or Decisions

On the date of the notice, SERC granted a Securities Firm License to PHILLIP CAPITAL (CAMBODIA) PLC to conduct securities brokerage business. The licensed office address is Eden Building, 3rd floor, Lot No. 23, Pasteur Street, Village 5, Sangkat Boeung Keng Kang 1, Khan Boeung Keng Kang, Phnom Penh.

For the official list of licensed companies and authorizations, SERC directs the public to its registry page: https://www.serc.gov.kh/khmer/m52.php?pn=6.

Implications for Investors, Businesses, or Compliance

The issuance of a brokerage license signals that the named firm has met SERC’s licensing requirements and is recorded on the regulator’s public register, which investors and counterparties can consult to verify authorization status. Businesses that interact with licensed brokers can use the SERC registry to confirm whether a firm is authorized to accept client orders and execute trades under Cambodia’s regulated securities framework.
