Summary: | An assessment of the level of
implementation of the IOSCO principles in the Indian
securities market was conducted from June 15 to July 1, 2011
as part of the Financial Sector Assessment Program (FSAP) by
Ana Carvajal, Monetary and capital markets department. An
initial IOSCO assessment was conducted in 2000. Since then
significant changes have taken place in the Indian market,
in terms of market development, upgrading of market
infrastructure and of the regulatory framework. The IOSCO
methodology requires that assessors not only look at the
legal and regulatory framework in place, but at how it has
been implemented in practice. The assessor relied on: (i) a
self-assessment developed by Securities Board Exchange of
India (SEBI); (ii) the review of relevant laws, and other
relevant documents provided by the authorities including
annual reports; (iii) meetings with the Chairman of SEBI and
other members of the Board, staff of SEBI as well as the
RBI, and other public authorities, in particular
representatives of the Ministry of Finance (MoF) and the
Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA); as well as (iv)
meetings with market participants, including issuers,
brokers, merchant bankers, fund managers, stock exchanges,
external auditors, credit rating agencies and law firms. |
