India's central bank is not looking to enable direct settlement of government securities via offshore settlement platforms like Euroclear -- one of the world's largest securities settlement systems -- despite recent tax changes aimed at attracting foreign investors, three sources familiar with the matter said.
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) wants overseas investors to participate directly on the domestic Negotiated Dealing System-Order Matching (NDS-OM) platform, an electronic system for secondary market trading in government bonds, the sources said.
