Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) chairman U.K.Sinha said issues in the merger of FMC with SEBI have to be resolved and also the issue of stock exchanges which also perform a regulatory role have to be taken into account.

He was responding to queries from reporters on the issue of allowing stock exchanges to list its shares here on the sidelines of an event organised by Indian Merchants' Chamber .

Earlier, the BSE had expressed its interest in listing its shares on the bourses.
