EU and RBI Close in on Solution for Bond Settlement Issue

Live Mint  

The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) are close to reaching a solution to the ongoing issue surrounding the settlement of Indian government bonds and other securities. The talks are taking place at both the government-to-government level and also at the level of the financial regulators. Two options being considered are allowing European banks’ investments in Indian bonds to be facilitated by a designated European bank, or accepting a third-party bond dealer suggested by the Indian central bank that can override the ESMA regulations.
