Embracing calculated risks while steering clear of the unavoidable: Octa Broker on trading and market dangers
KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 14 August 2025 - Risk is an unavoidable part of our life, present in every decision we make or choose not to make. Nowhere, however, is the risk more pronounced than in the fast-paced world of financial markets. Indeed, the constantly shifting economic landscape, marked by the rapid dissemination of news and the inherent volatility of prices, makes risk so pervasive that it's often synonymous with the market itself. However, Octa, a global financial broker, emphasises that not all risks are equal and that a deep understanding of different types of risk is crucial for mitigating potential losses and achieving long-term trading success. Definition of risk To better understand risk, one can recall the common phrases we often use in life: --> He who dares, wins --> Look before the leap --> Fortune favours the bold --> Nothing ventured, nothing gained --> The bigger the risk, the bigger the reward --> A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for These sayings capture the dual nature of risk: it can lead to reward or ruin. Even inaction carries risk, as the world continues to evolve around us, potentially leaving us vulnerable to unforeseen changes. Either way, here's a hard fact that Octa analysts learned over the years of providing access to financial markets for traders: without venturing into the unknown, significant rewards are out of reach. But what exactly is risk? A formal definition from the Oxford Learner's Dictionary describes risk as 'the possibility of something bad happening at some time in the future; a situation that could be dangerous or have a bad result'. In finance, this translates to the possibility of suffering a loss. While this might sound daunting, the key is to recognise that not all risks are equal. According to Octa analysts, while each risk type presents unique challenges, a strategic approach to risk management is the first step toward success in trading and investing. Main Types of Risk in Financial Markets 1. Market Risk Market risk refers to the potential for losses due to various factors affecting the overall performance of the financial markets. It's often broken down into three primary subtypes: --> Price Risk. This is the most common form of risk for traders. It's the risk of losses due to adverse changes in market price of an asset—whether a stock, a commodity, or a currency pair. --> Interest Rate Risk. This is the risk that borrowing costs might increase. This type of risk is particularly relevant for bond investors, as a rise in rates typically causes the value of bonds to fall. However, the risk also affects currencies' exchange rates, as changes in relative monetary policy of different countries can influence the flow of international capital. --> Currency Risk. Also known as 'exchange rate risk', is the risk that a foreign currency might devalue, negatively impacting an investment made in that currency or the price of that country's products. This is the primary focus for a company that exports or imports large amounts of goods and services or has direct investments overseas. 2. Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk relates to potential losses that might occur when a financial instrument or an asset cannot be bought or sold quickly enough without a significant change in its price due to low trading volumes. Highly liquid markets, like major currency pairs, have many buyers and sellers, making entering or exiting a position easy. Conversely, the market with fewer participants might force a trader to accept a much worse price than expected to complete a transaction, leading to a loss. This risk is especially relevant when dealing with large positions in relatively illiquid markets (for example, third-tier cryptocurrency) or during periods of market stress (for example, when important news is released during late-trading hours). 3. Operational Risk Operational risk involves potential losses from inadequate processes, systems, people, or external events, including fraud and cyberattacks. This can comprise anything from human error in data entry, technical failures in a trading platform, or system breakdowns that prevent a trade from being executed. While it might seem less prominent than market risk, it's still a critical consideration. 4. Counterparty Risk Counterparty risk is the risk that any party in a transaction will fail to fulfil its obligations. This is one of the most critical risks for a retail trader. Additional types of risk worth noting include inflation risk (erosion of purchasing power, impacting long-term investments), political/geopolitical risk (for example, sanctions or elections causing market disruptions), systemic risk (the potential collapse of an entire financial system due to interconnected failures, often amplified by leverage and contagion), and basis risk (occurs when hedging instruments don't perfectly correlate with the underlying asset). Minimizing risks Risk is unavoidable, but it can be managed, which means that it can be minimised and a trader can partially protect himself or herself from it. Octa recommends applying two key principles for managing risk: Principle 1. Maintain a reasonable amount of leverage and margin It's important to monitor an account's total margin usage in real time. Continuously adjusting a balance to reflect current profits and losses allows a trader to always see their available leverage and monitor their risk level. Principle 2. Minimise losses by setting stop-loss orders. Stop-loss orders allow traders to easily define an exit point for a trade before placing it, whether based on a specific price level or a monetary value. Risk avoidance Some risks are beyond the trader's control and are best avoided altogether. For example, a sudden glitch in a trading platform during a high-volatility event could cause a trader to lose a significant amount of money if they cannot close a position. Likewise, in the event of a broker's bankruptcy, there is a very real possibility of losing the entire investment, regardless of trade performance. This risk is not something a trader can manage with a stop-loss order; it's a risk trader must avoid entirely. In this regard, choosing a reliable broker is essential. Look for brokers that are regulated which offer transparent trading conditions with no hidden fees, and have a track record of fast execution and fast withdrawals, confirmed by positive reviews on independent platforms. By selecting a stable and client-focused broker, traders can minimise avoidable risks and focus on profitable opportunities. In conclusion, risk is the shadow side of opportunity in financial markets and trading. By understanding risk types and applying risk management techniques, individuals can navigate these waters with greater confidence and success.

PRCA Thailand Conference Reveals Nine in Ten Thais Want Transparency as AI Use Explodes
BANGKOK, THAILAND - Media OutReach Newswire - 14 August 2025 – As Thailand accelerates investment in artificial intelligence (AI), new research from PRCA APAC and YouGov reveals that trust is the cornerstone of public acceptance. While there is cautious optimism and strong calls for regulation, the Thai public expects transparency from brands and institutions to build and maintain that trust. Presented at the inaugural PRCA Thailand Conference 2025, the study, titled 'The Impact of AI on Thai Society', reveals a complex national picture. While Thailand is emerging as a regional leader in AI, with a USD 15.4 billion investment in infrastructure and a national plan to produce 90,000 AI professionals, the public remains sharply aware of the risks that come with rapid adoption. Key highlights from the research include: --> Transparency builds trust: 92% of Thais want brands to disclose AI use. Trust spikes among Gen Z (37%) and young families (31%) when AI use is transparent. --> Misuse tops concerns: 40% cite AI misuse as their biggest worry, followed by misinformation, deepfakes, privacy, and ethics. Gen X and rural groups are most cautious. --> AI supports, not replaces: 55% say AI boosts efficiency, but most agree it should enhance—not replace—human creativity. --> Demand for guidance: Many want practical AI education online and offline, with calls for stronger government regulation on ethics and skills training. 'Trust and transparency aren't just public expectations, they're now brand imperatives in the AI era,' said Dr. Karine Lohitnavy, Chair of PRCA Thailand and Founder of Midas PR. 'As communicators, we have a vital role to play in bridging the gap between innovation and understanding. That means helping the public make sense of AI's impact while holding brands accountable to ethical, human-first storytelling.' Speaker Narongyod Mahittivanicha, Founder of TWF Agency and Vice President of the Artificial Intelligence Association of Thailand, reinforced the irreplaceable role of human creativity in public relations. Referencing a recent viral Coldplay-related campaign known as the 'Astronomer CEO' crisis response, he noted that the level of creativity, emotional intelligence, and nuance involved is something AI cannot yet replicate. In a fireside chat titled 'Viva La Press Release! Old Format, New Tech,' Jennifer Kok, Founder and CEO of Media OutReach Newswire, said: 'In today's digital publishing and AI era, press releases play a vital role in driving brand trust through verbatim, guaranteed posting on authoritative news websites. These features give PR professionals the ability to control the narrative of key corporate messages, building brand equity with targeted journalists and media across their chosen markets. The advancements in AI will further empower the public relations industry.' Panel discussions included leaders from Microsoft Thailand, SCBx, Predictive, and Xponential Co., exploring AI's real-world applications in PR, brand reputation, and public perception. Moderated by Edelman Thailand's Vorasit Turongsomboon and digital creator Tossapol Leongsuppon, the panels addressed ethical governance, influencer transparency, and the public's call for structured AI education and stronger regulation. Jaruwan Vorarakthananun, Communications Lead at Microsoft Thailand, said: 'AI isn't here to replace communications professionals—it's here to empower us. Generative AI is still evolving, learning every day. It's up to us to guide its growth and ensure it truly works for us. Don't hesitate to adopt AI into your daily work. Treat it as a trusted assistant that helps us work smarter, faster, and with greater impact.' The inaugural PRCA Thailand Conference took place on 6 August 2025 at SCBx NEXT Tech, Siam Paragon, bringing together professionals from Thailand's public relations, business, and technology communities. The conference was supported by Gold Sponsor Media OutReach Newswire and other sponsors, including Edelman Thailand, MIDAS-PR, Moonshot Digital, Vero, SCBX, and YouGov.

Gentari Breaks Ground on Maryvale Solar & Energy Storage Project
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 14 August 2025 - Clean energy solutions provider Gentari yesterday marked the groundbreaking of the Maryvale Solar & Energy Storage project (Project Maryvale), a key milestone in delivering reliable, low-carbon energy for New South Wales (NSW). Project Maryvale is a next-generation hybrid renewable energy facility that integrates a 243 MWp solar installation with a 172 MW/409 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). Once operational, it can deliver up to 172 MW of dispatchable clean electricity - enough to power around 82,000 homes annually - while helping to avoid up to 615,000 tonnes of carbon emissions each year. At the peak of construction, the project is expected to create up to 360 jobs and unlock local opportunities across the regional supply chain. 'Project Maryvale represents our commitment to accelerating Australia's energy transition with reliable, dispatchable renewable energy,' said Claire Elkin, Head of Gentari Australia. 'As one of the first large-scale DC-coupled solar and storage projects in the country it embodies our ambition to deliver clean energy solutions at scale while supporting grid resilience.' Secured under NSW's Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap Project Maryvale was awarded a Long-Term Energy Service Agreement (LTESA) under the NSW Government's Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap. Administered by ASL as the NSW Consumer Trustee, the LTESA provides financial certainty through an option of an energy price floor. This mechanism helps to de-risk the project and facilitate financing. The project is strategically located within the Central-West Orana REZ - one of the priority zones identified by the NSW Government to accelerate renewable energy development. This region offers strong solar resources and is designed to accommodate large-scale generation and supporting infrastructure. Maximising the Value of Green Energy The Maryvale Solar & Energy Storage System will support a reliable renewable energy by enhancing grid stability and efficiency. The system will offer dispatchable renewable energy by firming its own solar output and dispatching it into the grid when it is most needed. Additionally, the system can provide essential ancillary services, which are critical for maintaining grid stability. Together, these functionalities position the BESS as an asset not only for project economics but for overall grid resilience. Leading Deployment of DC-Coupled Hybrid Solutions Project Maryvale stands as one of the largest DC-coupled solar and battery hybrid projects under construction and represents a significant step forward in the integration of renewable energy and storage technologies. The DC-coupled solar and storage allows the project to maximise excess solar generation by directly charging the BESS while delivering smoother, scheduled generation. Social Impact and Local Engagement Gentari is committed to delivering lasting value to the local Maryvale community. This includes establishing a community benefit fund, investing in workforce and industry capability development, and supporting regional infrastructure and housing initiatives in collaboration with local authorities. Through ongoing engagement with First Nations communities, local businesses, education providers, and government stakeholders, Gentari aims to foster inclusive participation and build long-term partnerships based on trust, openness, and shared benefit. Project Maryvale adds to Gentari's clean energy portfolio in Australia, which now includes 814 MW of solar and solar hybrid projects installed and under construction across the country. The project is being delivered by PCL Construction's Solar Division, appointed as the EPC contractor, while the PV modules and BESS system are being free-issued through direct procurement from Tier 1 suppliers — Trinasolar for the solar modules and Contemporary Amperex Technology Australia Pty Ltd , a globally recognised OEM, for the BESS. Notice to Proceed on the construction of this project was given in January 2025 and construction on site is now underway.
