The SWAGAT-FI framework, launched on June 1, simplifies registration for trusted foreign investors, including pension and sovereign funds. Over 164 registrations have already been recorded within just 100 days of implementation. This new system now allows a 10-year registration period, which reduces compliance costs significantly for long-term investors. While initial registrants include major global asset managers, foreign investment sentiment has fluctuated recently.
