Regulatory policy drafts signal new investment rules
RBI and SEBI unveil draft frameworks that could reshape foreign investment and distributor certification.
The RBI released a draft for future-ready rules on foreign investments, indicating a shift in capital inflow policy. SEBI simplified certification norms for SIF distributors by introducing a single NISM qualification, streamlining compliance for intermediaries. A separate RBI notification details the implementation of Section 51A of the UAPA, updating the sanctions list that banks must enforce, with potential spill‑over effects for the financial sector.
