Greater Awareness and Participation Seen Boosting Corporate Bond Liquidity

Companies can borrow money by selling corporate bonds to investors.

Kamlesh Shroff said more people should take part in this market.

He especially wants retail investors to learn more about corporate bonds.

More participants could make bonds easier to buy and sell.

This may also help prices reflect the market more accurately.

Shroff said Indian investors have shown more interest in shares than in debt products.

He supported channel partners who could explain bonds and advise investors across the country.

He also said riskometers could help people understand how risky different bonds are.
