SEBI Integrates NISM into Nationwide Investor Awareness Campaign
What happened
The Securities and Exchange Board of India launched a nationwide investor awareness campaign called Project Jagrook to combat fraudulent financial advice and deceptive claims by social media finfluencers. This initiative integrates the National Institute of Securities Markets with SEBI to safeguard retail investors as capital market participation grows. The campaign, which runs through March 2027, will be executed across multiple media channels in English, Hindi, and 11 regional languages.

Why it matters
The campaign represents a regulatory pivot by SEBI to address structural gaps between market access and investor comprehension, which were highlighted in SEBI’s Investor Survey 2025. By promoting financial literacy, the initiative aims to guide market entrants to rely on regulated entities rather than online trends.
Both the National Stock Exchange and the Securities and Exchange Board of India are increasing investor awareness efforts.
