Forging Investor Trust Through Ethical Governance And Regulatory Compliance

Ethical Governance And Regulatory Compliance

At NSDL, we aim to instil investor confidence in market integrity through a landscape shaped by security, transparency, and ethical governance. Governed by the Depositories Act, 1996, NSDL operates under SEBI-approved ByeLaws and Business Rules. These ByeLaws delineate NSDL's operational framework and that of its business partners, defining their respective scopes. The Business Rules outline precise operational protocols for NSDL and its associates, ensuring standardised procedures are diligently followed.

NSDL now functions in accordance with SEBI’s Depositories and Participants Regulations, 2018 (earlier known as SEBI’s Depositories and Participants Regulations, 1996). In accordance with the SEBI (Depositories and Participants) Regulations, 2018 (earlier SEBI (Depositories and Participants) Regulations, 1996), NSDL has adopted Code of Conduct for its Governing Board, Directors, Committee Members and Key Management Personnel. The Code of Conduct, is aimed at improving the professional and ethical standards in the functioning of NSDL thereby creating better investor confidence in the integrity of the market. >
