Significance of the new SEBI logo
The new design is intended to represent SEBI’s combination of historic values and its modern, technology-driven approach to its three areas of focus in the securities market: market development, market regulation, and investor protection, according to Madhabi Puri Buch, the Chairperson of SEBI. SEBI’s history is closely tied to significant events in India’s financial markets, such as the Harshad Mehta scam in 1992, which led to the establishment of the SEBI Act. Over time, SEBI has evolved to become more focused on protecting investors and promoting market growth, as reflected in its recent rebranding efforts.
