India's market regulator Sebi has introduced a simplified certification for employees in non-core research roles, aiming to ease business operations. Staff involved in sales and client interaction will now take a lighter NISM module, while those directly preparing research reports remain under the existing stringent examination. This reform reduces compliance burdens for client-facing roles, fostering greater participation in research-related activities.
