RBI Approves Jio Financial Services’ Application to Become a Core Investment Company

Jio Financial Services has received approval from the Reserve Bank of India to become a core investment company. “Further to the disclosure dated November 21, 2023, the company has today received from the Reserve Bank of India approval for conversion of the Company from Non-Banking Financial Company to Core Investment Company,” Jio Financial said in a stock filing.

What is a core investment company?

The Reserve Bank of India defines a core investment company as a specialized non-banking financial organization with a minimum asset value of Rs 100 crore. Regarding CIC’s main business goals, the Central Bank has released a statement back in 2016. A CIC must concentrate on acquiring securities and shares, per the RBI statement. There are rules governing this business.

What changes for Jio Financial Services?

Jio Financial Services will now be able to operate more flexibility on a daily basis thanks to this approval. It can now prioritize key investments over other financial activities. With the market conditions always changing, Jio Financial can now seek diversification in its investment portfolio.

Jio Financial Services: Journey so far
