Time and again, India's market regulator #SEBI has kept on introducing many reforms and guidelines to enhance transparency, accessibility, and investor protection within the alternative investment industry.

So why not check out this ALT Investor blog, in which we have explained the key guidelines and regulations which the SEBI has introduced in recent years in the alternative investments space.

5 years back, a massive financial scandal had come to the picture, was of DHFL. Accusations against DHFL ranged from committing loan fraud, creating shell companies, doing money laundering, to the creation of a web of fake borrowers. In that famous DHFL crisis that began in 2019, the secured corporate bond holders were only able to recover ~46% of their principal back. But, but, but, what most of you wouldn't know is that DHFL also had issued tons of Housing Loans SDIs (securitized debt instrument) and not a single one of them faced any default! These SDIs are still in the market and performing absolutely fine. Interesting, right? In this insightful video of ALTXtra series of ALT Investor, powered by Grip Invest, Yash Roongta, CFA, FRM talks about the DHFL collapse and how SDIs are different from Corporate Bonds. https://lnkd.in/gj2G56QJ Surely you will learn a lot from this one!
