Summary
In a progressive move, the capital markets regulator has allowed foreign investors to adopt digital signatures, streamlining the onboarding experience. This change eliminates notarisation and apostillisation for power of attorney documents, thus accelerating onboarding times and enhancing regulatory processes. The goal is to invite more international capital into the Indian market landscape.
