India remains open, attractive destination for global capital, says SEBI chief

New Delhi, April 11: SEBI Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey has said that India continues to remain an open and compelling destination for global capital, supported by strong macroeconomic fundamentals, a rapidly expanding investor base, and a reform-oriented policy environment.
The SEBI chief was speaking at an interactive session — jointly organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and the Consulate General of India (CGI) — with global investors and venture capital leaders in San Francisco in the US.
Addressing investors, Pandey reaffirmed SEBI’s commitment to a transparent, consultative and technology-driven regulatory framework, while underscoring India’s resilience amid global volatility.
“India remains open and welcoming to global capital. SEBI’s approach is risk-based and facilitative, with a strong focus on simplifying access for foreign investors, strengthening market integrity, and ensuring long-term stability of our capital markets,” he said.
He highlighted recent measures to simplify Foreign Portfolio Investor (FPI) registration and re-KYC processes, increased use of digital platforms, growth in initial public offerings (IPOs) and alternative investment funds, and the rising role of domestic investors in providing market depth and resilience.
On the economy front, Pandey noted that controlled inflation, robust foreign exchange reserves and stable external accounts continue to underpin India’s economic strength, with growth among the highest globally. (IANS)
