AlphaGrep Raises 2 Billion Rupees via Bonds Following RBI Bank Funding Restrictions
AlphaGrep, a leading Indian high-frequency trading firm, has raised 2 billion rupees through one-year non-convertible bonds at a 10.5% annual coupon. This funding shift follows Reserve Bank of India's new regulations restricting banks from financing proprietary trading firms. The raised capital will support AlphaGrep's AI and machine-learning infrastructure, retail business growth, margin deposits, and working capital needs. The move reflects broader industry adjustments to tighter regulatory measures affecting derivatives trading and bank exposure.
