Sebi boosts tech-driven enforcement to curb investors scam, safeguard retail investors

Описание: Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has intensified technology-driven surveillance to tackle rising pre-investment scams targeting retail investors. Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey said many new investors are being trapped by fake trading apps, WhatsApp groups and promises of high returns even before they reach registered intermediaries. With over 140 million unique investors in India, Sebi is deploying AI and data analytics tools to monitor misconduct, flag misleading content and track unregistered advisories in real time. The regulator is also promoting tools like SEBI Check to help investors verify legitimate entities. Pandey urged disciplined, long-term investing through SIPs and pooled vehicles while warning against speculative trading and unregistered “finfluencers.” Sebi is also reviewing PMS regulations and examining systemic safeguards after recent technical glitches at National Securities Depository Limited and Multi Commodity Exchange of India.
