Abstract:
Carrying out a business, it's necessary to have the adequate capital for investment in such business. A popularity of providing the capital to invest therein is the mobilization of capital from the public, which can help the business to reduce the cost of production, that's because the said method a proprietor has no burden of a loan-no interest to pay but issuing stocks. Therefore, the significant instruments for this are securities. The type is the more popular the more selfish. With this reason, the Securities and Exchange Act B.E. 2535 was enacted in order to enforce with the capital mobilization in the present. The purpose of this law is to protect the public from the capital mobilization of the business which is based on the theory of "Disclosure". Namely, the law provides the requirements that an issuer who desires to make a public offering shall comply with the said requirements on the disclosure of information. After those have been completedly operated, the issuer is able to offer to sell securities to the public. However, the studies shown that the scope and the meaning of the public offering according to the Securities and Exchange Act B.E. 2535 are so board and have the specific meaning which is different from the other laws. The public offer differs from an offer to sell in the law concerning juristic acts or contracts, its meaning, namely, covers any acts supporting the offer to sell as well. However, the public offer in fact involves with the communication among the other person5concerning the public offer such as a negotiation between an underwriter or the offer to employees or to workers of tis company which these practices have many reasons and necessities different from the public offer. It, therefore, should be exempted from complying with the requirements of making the public offer.
