SEBI chairman's speech-

#1
Dear All,

The following are SEBI chairman's speech and request your comments also.

1.One of the issues that the SEBI was looking at was to allow short selling of equities by institutions, a facility that was available to individuals. The regulator was keen to remove this dichotomy in the market and hoped to permit it by the end of this year in the interest of stability in the market. The regulator would also put in place a system of stock borrowing and lending to facilitate this. It was also moving towards a system of physical settlement rather than cash settlement for transactions.


2.Regulator would increase the positions limit in the derivatives market, which was now common for both derivatives and futures. SEBI would have separate positions limits for futures and options and would also move up the present limits to remove distortions.

I request members to post their views and share pros and cons of that.
