The National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) are joining forces to educate investors in Puducherry through a special regional awareness program scheduled for this Saturday, November 29.
Event Details and Schedule
The significant financial literacy initiative will take place at Hotel Accord in Puducherry, where market regulators and exchange officials will share crucial insights with local investors. According to the official release, registration will begin at 9:30 AM, followed by the main program commencement at 10:30 AM.
Distinguished Speakers and Key Topics
The event will feature two of India's most prominent financial market authorities as keynote speakers. Ashishkumar Chauhan, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of NSE, and Tuhin Kanta Pandey, Chairman of SEBI, will lead the discussions.
These financial experts will focus on two critical areas that every investor should understand: Investing in Securities Market and Fraud & Scam Prevention. Their combined expertise promises to deliver valuable guidance for both new and experienced market participants.
Importance of Investor Education
This regional meeting represents a significant step toward enhancing financial literacy among Indian investors, particularly in smaller cities and union territories like Puducherry. With increasing participation in stock markets, understanding proper investment strategies and recognizing potential scams has become essential for protecting one's financial future.
The session aims to empower attendees with knowledge about:
- Smart investment practices in securities markets
- Identifying and avoiding investment frauds
- Regulatory protections available to investors
- Building sustainable wealth through informed decisions
This initiative by NSE and SEBI underscores their commitment to creating a more informed and protected investor community across India, ensuring that market participants outside major metropolitan centers receive equal access to financial education and regulatory guidance.
