Regulatory News Wrap for Asia

Tuesday, 2026-07-28 · covering the last ~24 hours

India

SEBI

No material new SEBI circulars, press releases or consultation papers on trading, derivatives or settlement mechanics this window. The comment window on Thursday's draft Portfolio Managers Regulations, 2026 (overseas investment, unhedged derivatives, new MF-PMS category) remains open until 13 August 2026 — see Monday's edition for details.

Exchanges (NSE/BSE)

No new material NSE or BSE circulars this window beyond routine settlement-calendar, new-listing and surveillance (ASM/ESM/GSM) notices. The Closing Auction Session go-live remains on track for 3 August, per the mock-session circular covered Monday.

RBI, IFSCA & other

No material RBI items specific to equity markets or FPIs this window. No new IFSCA circulars or consultation papers bearing on equities; its GIFT City direct-listing consultation remains the open item in the pipeline.

Rest of Asia — Developed Markets

A quiet window: no material new regulatory or market-structure announcements from Hong Kong (SFC, HKEX), Japan (JFSA, JPX/TSE), Singapore (MAS, SGX RegCo), Australia (ASIC, ASX) or New Zealand (FMA, NZX) this window.

Rest of Asia — Emerging Markets

Also quiet: no new circulars or structural rule changes from China (CSRC, SSE/SZSE, Stock Connect), South Korea (FSC/FSS, KRX), Taiwan (FSC, TWSE/TPEx), Thailand (SEC, SET), Indonesia (OJK, IDX), Malaysia (SC, Bursa) or the Philippines (SEC, PSE) this window. Worth watching: the CSRC held a run of investor and industry symposiums in the prior week flagging tighter oversight of quantitative and AI-driven trading, but no draft rule has been published yet.

Industry & broker notes

Nothing distinct from freely available broker/industry commentary this window beyond the items above.
