RBI issues amendment directions on capital market exposure norms

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has issued amendment directions related to capital market exposure (CME) norms for commercial banks and small finance banks, following a review of stakeholder feedback on draft guidelines released in October 2025.

The revised framework aims to provide an enabling environment for banks to finance acquisitions by Indian corporates, enhance lending limits against shares, REITs and InvITs, and remove the regulatory ceiling on lending against listed debt securities. It also introduces a more principle-based approach for lending to capital market intermediaries.

Based on the feedback received, RBI has incorporated necessary modifications and issued amendment directions covering areas such as credit facilities, concentration risk management, capital adequacy norms, financial statement disclosures, and undertaking of financial services for both commercial banks and small finance banks.

These changes are intended to strengthen regulatory clarity, improve risk management, and support orderly credit flow to capital markets.
