Sebi Reviews Extra Disclosure Rules for Foreign Portfolio Investors
India's Securities and Exchange Board (Sebi) is reviewing its stringent extra disclosure rules for foreign portfolio investors (FPIs). The proposed changes aim to balance transparency with market stability by potentially exempting FPIs with low equity holdings or investments in professionally managed firms and public sector undertakings from detailed investor disclosures. These rules, introduced after allegations against the Adani Group, require FPIs exceeding certain asset or concentration thresholds to reveal ultimate beneficial owners. Sebi plans to seek public feedback through a consultation paper.
