Sebi boosts tech-driven measures to curb scams, safeguard retail investors

As the number of retail investors surges, Sebi Chairman Tuhin Kanta Pandey said the regulator is intensifying surveillance and technology-driven enforcement to curb rising pre-investment scams that divert funds before investors even interact with registered intermediaries.
