By Business StandardPublished On Mar 26, 2025

A move towards reform

Sebi to review conflict-of-interest rules for board members and officials after Tuhin Pandey’s call for greater transparency

Why this matters

Allegations in 2024 raised concerns about regulatory credibility. Strengthened rules aim to restore trust

High-level committee formed

An expert panel will review disclosure norms on property, investments, and liabilities. Report due in 3 months

Set the standard

Public disclosure by officials can set a precedent for other regulators and strengthen market trust

Other board decisions

FPI disclosure limit raised to ₹50,000 crore

Simpler rules for Category II AIFs

Governance tweaks for market infra

Reform with caution

While easing norms may aid capital flow, regulatory integrity must remain the top priority
