The latest in this situation
How it started
What happened
The Securities and Exchange Board of India approved the Portfolio Managers Regulations, 2026, which replaces the existing Portfolio Managers Regulations, 2020. The new framework introduces the Portfolio Managers Route for Investing in Mutual Fund units (PRIM). This allows portfolio managers to invest clients’ money in direct plans of mutual funds, including ETFs, index funds, and Specialised Investment Funds offered by Indian asset management companies.

Why it matters
The comprehensive revamp of the PMS rules was under review by SEBI. The regulator also considered allowing PMS managers to invest in foreign securities, such as overseas equities and debt, subject to FEMA and Liberalised Remittance Scheme limits with client consent.
