The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has unveiled a new logo on the occasion of the market regulator’s 35th Foundation Day on 12 April.
The new logo retains the traditional blue palette but also reflects on a more modern design.
Sebi’s new logo seeks to reflect the unique combination of its rich traditions and its new data and technology-based approach in all three areas of its mandate in the securities market–development and regulation of the securities market and investor protection.
Sebi was established on April 12, 1988, under the Ministry of Finance. However, the body was granted statutory powers in 1992.
Sebi functions as a quasi-judicial body and is to have more statutory powers than other market regulators like the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) of the United States.
