SEBI's Concerns on Derivatives Trading
SEBI has raised concerns over the surge in derivatives trading in India, particularly in equity F &O where 9 out of 10 individual traders incur significant losses. With the market volatility and increased participation, SEBI aims to enhance investor protection and risk management, considering the potential risks faced by small investors taking on excessive trading risks.
SEBI's Proposed Measures
SEBI is contemplating new proposals to regulate derivatives trading, such as increasing lot sizes for options contracts and restricting the number of contracts per week per exchange. These proposals aim to curb excessive risk-taking by small investors and reduce opportunities for trading, potentially impacting the profit margins of stock brokers and exchanges.
BSE's Opportunity and NSC's Dominance
While NSC has historically dominated the derivatives market in India, BSE sees an opportunity for market share growth with SEBI's proposed measures that could shift trading volumes towards BSE's derivatives contracts like the Sensex derivatives. Despite NSC's technological advancements and strategic innovations surpassing BSE, the proposed regulations could potentially level the playing field in the derivatives market.
In today's episode for 12th July 2024, we tell you about a plausible new SEBI proposal that could give BSE an unfair advantage over NSE in the derivatives market.
