Tuhin Kanta Pandey delivered a compelling speech that blended confidence in India’s financial growth with a realistic assessment of upcoming challenges. His address functioned as a declaration of continuity and a deeper reflection on the structural shifts that have transformed India’s financial ecosystem over the past decade. With a background rich in public policy and finance, his insights held importance, offering a glimpse into how SEBI may evolve under his leadership. He emphasized \”optimum regulation over maximum regulation,\” suggesting a shift towards simplifying and rationalizing outdated policies while maintaining market integrity. He acknowledged that SEBI must uphold the highest governance standards, including measures to disclose and mitigate conflicts of interest at the board level. The effectiveness of these concepts into actionable policies will ultimately determine the trajectory of India’s growth in the coming years in the financial market’s growth trajectory, writes Ravi Agrawal, an analyst at the NITI Aayog in New Delhi, in a letter to the Indian Business Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
