Sebi may let mutual funds enter commodity derivatives sector
The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has proposed allowing mutual funds and portfolio management services (PMS) firms to invest in commodity derivatives. In a discussion paper issued on Thursday, the capital markets regulator has also sought comments on whether a commodity-specific exchange traded fund (ETF) can be launched. Mint had reported this first on 10 November. The proposal comes on the back of recommendations of the Commodity Derivatives Advisory Committee, which had proposed institutional participation to increase liquidity in commodity derivatives. These are new institutional investor categories in this segment.
