SEBI streamlines inspections of market intermediaries, cuts routine visits
Regulator to adopt risk-based approach, conduct joint inspections and prioritise high-risk entities from FY27
SEBI has revamped its inspection framework for market intermediaries, reducing the number of routine inspections while shifting to a more risk-based and coordinated supervisory approach from FY27. The changes are aimed at strengthening regulatory oversight while improving ease of doing business for intermediaries. The regulator has reduced the targeted number of inspections for FY27 to about one-third of those undertaken in the previous financial year, noting that stock exchanges and depositories already conduct regular inspections of stock brokers, depository participants, investment advisers and research analysts.
