About Us
With a view to bring uniformity in the KYC requirements for the securities markets, SEBI has initiated usage of uniform KYC by all the SEBI registered intermediaries. In this regard SEBI has issued the SEBI KYC (Know Your Client) Registration Agency (KRA), Regulations, 2012.
Pursuant to the aforesaid regulations, NSE Data & Analytics (formely known as DotEx International Limited) which is a wholly owned subsidiary of National Stock Exchange of India Limited (NSEIL), has been granted approval by SEBI to function as KRA.
KRA provides for centralization of KYC records in the securities market. The client who is desirous of opening an account /trade/deal with the SEBI registered intermediary shall submit the KYC details through the KYC registration form and supporting documents. The intermediary shall perform the initial KYC and upload the details on the system of the KYC Registration Agency (KRA). The KYC information can be accessed by all the SEBI Registered Intermediaries while dealing with the same client. As a result, once the client has done KYC with a SEBI registered intermediary, he need not undergo the same process again with another intermediary.
Features of KRA system
- Single KYC for investors investing in the markets through stock brokers, mutual funds, portfolio managers, etc.
- Issue of acknowledgement letter to each and every client who has done KYC with intermediary.
