Finance Desk – SEBI, the organization that regulates the stock market in India, is planning to do a big survey across the country. The goal is to get more people to invest in the stock market, help them understand the risks involved, and fix any issues in the system.
Ananth Narayan G from SEBI noted that even though a lot of foreign money left the Indian markets recently, Indian investors like mutual funds added just as much money back in. He warned that we shouldn’t be too comfortable though, because foreign investments are still crucial for India’s growth.
He spoke at a forum and pointed out the need to keep attracting retail investors—ordinary people who invest their money. He’s concerned that many young investors haven’t experienced the ups and downs of the market and may not realize the risks.
To help investors, SEBI is working with other financial organizations to teach them more about the market. The survey will help SEBI figure out how to bring more people into investing, teach them about the risks, and find out what’s missing in the system to make it better.
