In an effort to enhance investor awareness and safeguard the interests of investors in the securities market, the National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL) and the National Stock Exchange (NSE), under the aegis of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), organised the Mega Regional Investor Seminar for Awareness (RISA) at the Kerala Police Academy in Thrissur.
This initiative, supported by other Market Infrastructure Institutions (MIIs), aimed to empower investors with knowledge and promote a safer investment environment.
The event, titled “Smart Nikshepam Bhavi Surakshitham,” aimed at educating investors about the intricacies of the securities markets. It featured insightful panel discussions, including one on “Understanding Personal Finance to Achieve Financial Independence,” where attendees were informed about the importance of savings, investment strategies, and how to recognise red flags in Ponzi schemes, unauthorised advisors, and digital scams.
The event also included presentations and engaging sessions on “Cyber Frauds & Cyber Scams in the Digital Era,” along with an exciting financial quiz. Additionally, the event was supported by several key partners, including BSE, AMFI, CDSL, MSE, and MCX.
With interactive discussions, data-driven insights and expert guidance, the seminar served as a valuable platform for participants from the Kerala Police Academy and reaffirms Kerala’s growing interest in the securities market.
