No issue with futures, concerns around short-dated options: Sebi chairman

Sebi chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey said the regulator has no concerns over the futures segment of the derivatives market, but remains watchful of speculative activity in short-dated options. Pandey said the regulator's recent interventions are focused specifically on curbing excesses in short-tenor options, while preserving the crucial role of futures and derivatives in price discovery and liquidity. Responding to a question on the derivatives segment, Pandey said the issue should not be broadly labelled as one concerning F&O. "You should not be calling it F&O because futures we never had an issue with. There was an issue around short-dated options," he said in an interaction with PTI. He noted that Sebi has already introduced a series of regulatory measures targeting excesses in short-tenor options.

Sebi boosts tech-driven measures to curb scams, safeguard retail investors

As the number of retail investors surges, Sebi Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey said the regulator is intensifying surveillance and technology-driven enforcement to curb rising pre-investment scams that divert funds before investors even interact with registered intermediaries. Pandey, whocompleted one year at the helm of the regulator on March 1, noted that many new and intending investors are being misled by fake trading apps, WhatsApp groups and promises of high returns, often diverting funds to personal accounts of fraudsters long before any engagement with Sebi-regulated intermediaries. He stressed that investor caution must evolve beyond mere awareness to informed action, especially given the country's expanding retail base. Responding to a query on pre-investment frauds, Pandey said many individuals intending to enter the markets are being "hijacked by scamsters" even before they reach a Sebi-registered intermediary.
