Sebi mulls separation of non-regulated activities for debenture trustees

Sebi on Monday proposed that debenture trustees separate non-market watchdog-regulated activities into a new legal entity and define "cross-default" to clarify their roles in shared security interests.

Sebi clarifies on 3-in-1 accounts usage for online public issue application

Markets regulator Sebi on Friday clarified that investors can continue using 3-in-1 accounts to apply online for public issues of debt securities, non-convertible redeemable preference shares, municipal debt securities, and securitised debt instruments. This is in addition to the existing modes of application, Sebi said in a circular. A three-in-one trading account combines a savings account, a demat account, and a trading account into a single integrated solution. In this case, the clients would have their funds in their bank account, earning interest on the cash balances. The clarification came after Sebi received feedback that there is a need to explicitly specify the usage of 3-in-1 type accounts for making an application in the public issue of debt securities, non-convertible redeemable preference shares, municipal debt securities and securitised debt instruments. Last month, Sebi's board approved a proposal whereby, in addition to the current mode of trading, the qualified st
