SEBON issues Letters of Intent to 13 new broker companies who submitted license applications.
The Securities Board of Nepal (SEBON) has initiated the process of granting new licenses for stock brokers and dealers. Following the revision of the Securities Market Operation Regulations 2064 and the Securities Dealers Regulations 2064, SEBON announced a 30-day deadline for accepting applications for new licenses. As a result, 45 companies applied for stock broker licenses and one company applied for a stock dealer license.
Recently, SEBON issued Letters of Intent (LOI) to 13 new broker companies that had applied for licenses. Earlier, at a board of directors meeting, 16 companies had already received LOIs. So far, 29 companies that have applied for broker licenses have received LOIs from SEBON.
Once a new broker company receives a letter of intent from SEBON, it is required to set up its infrastructure according to the board-established standards. Following infrastructure preparation, SEBON will monitor the company to ensure that all requirements are met. If all requirements are met during monitoring, the company will be granted a license.
