The National Stock Exchange (NSE) on Thursday announced restrictions on members and authorised persons from using names such as advisor, mutual funds, mutual fund services, capital manager, fund advisor, and asset/wealth/portfolio management among others, according to a report by Mint.

The stock exchange said that they have prepared the list of words as they tend to create a wrong impression among investors.

NSE in its statement said that “It is observed by Exchange that Trading Members/Authorized Persons are using words such as Advisors, Asset/Wealth/Portfolio Management etc. in their name which is misleading and may indicate to the clients/investors that the Trading Members/Authorized Persons are registered for offering services other than broking services without having the applicable registration for those services with Sebi/other regulators."

"The name of Trading Member/Authorized Person should reflect the registration held by the entity and should not in any way create an impression of performing a role for which the entity is not registered," the circular issued by the NSE said.

The announcement has been made to safeguard investors from traders who claim to have services other than broking services without having the applicable registration, the report said.

As this order comes into effect, the members can use the listed nomenclatures only if they have registered themselves in that capacity with Sebi or with other regulators. However, the list provided is only illustrative and not exhaustive, the circular clarified.
