U-turn from regulator may be new lifeline to Indian derivatives

·Economic Times·Impact 3/5 · Notable

The Securities and Exchange Board of India, the country's top regulator, is reversing its previous decision to introduce a new settlement system in India's equity-derivatives market. This change of heart may provide a much-needed boost to the market, which had been struggling with the previous system. The return to a stable settlement system could enhance trader confidence and lead to increased trading volumes in derivatives over time. This development is a positive sign for the Indian economy, as a healthy derivatives market is crucial for facilitating trade and investment.
