KATHMANDU: The government has included plans to develop Nepal’s capital market as safe, competitive, and aligned with international standards in the upcoming fiscal year’s policy and programme.
Presenting the policy and programme in Parliament on Monday, President Ram Chandra Paudel outlined key reforms planned for the financial sector.
The policy states that securities regulation, Nepal Stock Exchange (NEPSE), and clearing systems will be restructured to strengthen market efficiency and governance.
It also aims to expand the participation of institutional investors, pension funds, insurance companies, mutual funds, and non-resident Nepalis in the securities market.
Furthermore, the government plans to promote long-term capital formation through the development of the bond market, credit market, infrastructure bonds, and risk management instruments.
