IFSCA issues new framework for fintech entities
The framework issued by IFSCA is a unified regulator for banking, capital markets, insurance and fund management in IFSC.
In a bid to develop and regulate financial products and services, the government-controlled International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA) on April 27 issued a framework for fintech entities across the spectrum of banking, insurance, securities, and fund management.
As per the framework, there will be a dedicated Regulatory Sandbox for fintech products or solutions. IFSCA has defined Regulatory Sandbox as a live environment with a limited set of real customers for a limited timeframe wherein entities operating in the capital market, banking, insurance and other financial services space in International Financial Services Centres (IFSC) shall be granted certain exemptions and relaxations from the applicability of certain regulatory provisions for experimenting fintech ideas and solutions.
