WELCOME THE PROPOSAL OF SEBI TO SEPARATE BROKERS FROM INVESTORS' MONEY
I have been reading the news in the Press and Media since yesterday
that the Capital Market and Securities Market Regulator SEBI (Securities and Exchange Board of India) is mooting the Proposal to
Separate the Investors' Money from the Brokers ... it is an Welcome Move.
In fact SEBI is seeking public opinion about it and I say it will be good move if implemented effectively.
Giving a Business Standard Link below for any one not read about it :
Right
now I have no present and live interest on this subject, however, since
it is a subject that involves Good National Interest with my Unbiased
Opinion I welcome it as a Management Expert. My Opinion is also not
unfounded, it is based on lot of past experiences on the subject.
It
is a practical problem and it goes without saying, based on my past
observations, that there would be always an "Undue and Unholy Eye" on
the investor's money by the Brokerages always, it is almost inevitable
and unavoidable. The moment the Investor's money goes to the hands of
the Brokerages, it is most of the times will be usurped to some extent,
to a large extent and in some cases even fully by various ways and means
the Brokerages will deploy by hidden ways. The Small Investors mostly
and invariably are the un-escaping preys.
It
is also a fact and quite natural, that the small investors largely,
lose money in the fray of the Brokerages, will keep quiet crying having
no other go. Like "a wound at the wrong place of the body", they will
not be able to see and show it to others as well. It remains a fact. It
will not be disclosed and it will remain digested as untold pains, that
is the story always with the small investors.
Let
me also say very clearly, the Brokerages of even the Very Big Banks and
the Very Big Corporates which are parts or group entities of their
Conglomerate and Giant Groups, do not even spare the Small Investors as
good as the Smaller Brokers. Their Employees and Executives ( of those
Big Bank Brokerages or Brokerages of Big Corporates ) will be as bad and
sucking the small investors as that of the smaller ones.
I
remember, once a team of executives from the Brokerage of a Big Private
Bank had visited me in the past and a few years back, as I had escalated to the level of the
Vice-Chairman and the MD of that Bank on some issues of my very small trading
account I had with them in the past, it would not be fair to name that
Bank and its Brokerage.
After the meeting, one of the
Executives who was very kind to me somehow and had liked and respected
me very much for some reasons, had told me privately that "Sir, please
close your account from this Brokerage for your own good interest". It
was their employee and executive who had said to me, I remember him very
well for his noble act, even that defied his own employer, he was
honest in saying that to me and I had closed that trading account and
stopped everything.
As I said at
the beginning of this note, even if I do not have any involvement on
this subject presently and right now, for the sake of National
Interest, as a Management Expert in my Opinion this Proposal of SEBI is
Welcome.
I am placing this post at my Blog : drnimain.blogspot.com which is at a public space so that this opinion as a public opinion may travel to the right place where it is needed.
