Sebi Proposes Net Settlement of Cash Market Funds for Mutual Fund Schemes
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has proposed allowing mutual fund schemes to settle cash market fund obligations on a net basis for outright buy or sell transactions, aiming to reduce temporary liquidity requirements and improve settlement efficiency. This netting would apply only within individual mutual fund schemes and not across different schemes or for transactions involving both buying and selling the same security. Securities settlement will continue on a gross, delivery-based basis to maintain existing safeguards.
