Meet the demands of the SEBI CSCRF
The compliance requirements of the Securities and Exchanges Board of India (SEBI) span a range of areas including financial reporting, disclosures, governance, third-party risk, data retention, insider trading, and cyber resilience. Of these, Akku makes compliance with SEBI’s Cybersecurity and Cyber Resilience Framework (CSCRF) simpler and quicker with its range of cybersecurity controls.
Why Does Compliance with the SEBI Cybersecurity and
Cyber Resilience Framework (CSCRF) Matter?
SEBI regulations apply to a range of entities including stock brokers, investment advisors, portfolio managers, mutual funds, RTAs, KRAs, and market infrastructure institutions (MIIs).
SEBI regulations are highly stringent, meaning that your organization’s compliance also ensures secure, trustworthy, and resilient operations.
Non-compliance with SEBI compliance requirements can result in major penalties, including fines, license suspension, and even imprisonment.
SEBI’s regulations are mandatory for regulated entities to operate in India, and so the importance of compliance cannot be overstated.
