National President’s
Message – June 2026
“Strong markets are built on trust, strengthened by innovation, and sustained through collaboration.”
As we conclude another eventful month, I extend my warm greetings to all ANMI members, market participants, and stakeholders. June has once again demonstrated that while global uncertainties continue to influence financial markets, India’s capital market ecosystem has remained resilient, adaptive, and forward-looking.
The global economy continues to navigate a complex landscape. Although easing geopolitical tensions in West Asia have brought some relief to energy markets, inflationary pressures, currency volatility, and supply-chain challenges continue to shape global investment sentiment. International agencies have revised global growth expectations downward, reflecting cautious optimism rather than complete recovery. Simultaneously, the rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence and technology-led innovation continues to create new growth opportunities across economies.
India has displayed remarkable resilience amidst these developments. Despite temporary pressure arising from crude oil prices, foreign portfolio outflows, and external uncertainties, our economy continues to be supported by robust domestic consumption, sustained investment activity, healthy fiscal management, and resilient corporate performance. Domestic institutional investors have once again demonstrated confidence in India’s long-term growth story by continuing their strong participation in the capital markets.
However, as highlighted in the latest NSE Market Pulse, the coming months warrant careful attention. Alongside global geopolitical developments, the evolving monsoon outlook and climate-related risks have emerged as important macroeconomic variables that could influence inflation, agricultural output, and overall economic stability. As market intermediaries, we must remain vigilant, well-informed, and prepared to guide investors through these evolving market conditions with prudence and professionalism.
Encouragingly, India’s capital markets continue to deepen and diversify. New products such as Electronic Gold Receipts (EGRs), expanding commodity derivatives, growing SME listings, and continued participation across equity and debt markets reflect the maturity and dynamism of our financial ecosystem. These developments create new opportunities for investors while reinforcing the importance of robust market infrastructure and investor education.
As a ISF Co Chair, I also had the opportunity to attend the 112th Brokers' Industry Standards Forum (Regular) meeting on 11th June 2026, where key industry stakeholders deliberated on important regulatory, operational, and market infrastructure initiatives aimed at further strengthening the securities market ecosystem.
During the month, I had the privilege of representing ANMI at several prestigious industry events, including the Special Bell Ringing Ceremony – Joining the NSE EGR Movement on 2nd, June, 2026 at NSE, the ET Alpha event on 4th June, 2026, NISM’s Stock Broker & DP Compliance Officers Symposium 2026 on 6th June, 2026 at BSE, Russia’s National Day celebration in Mumbai on 9th June, 2026 and Redefining Global Wealth: How Dubai and DIFC Are Shaping the Future of the Wealth Ecosystem by Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) and Interpolitan Money on Wednesday, 24 June 2026 at The Quorum, Mumbai. These interactions provided valuable opportunities to engage with regulators, market infrastructure institutions, policymakers, and industry leaders, reaffirming ANMI’s commitment to contributing meaningfully to the development of India’s capital markets.
I am equally delighted to share that, on Sunday, 21st June 2026, the ANMI National Secretariat successfully organised a Yoga & Sound Healing Session on the occasion of International Yoga Day, which was a grand success. The event was graced by Mr. Ashishkumar Chauhan, MD & CEO, NSE, and Ms. Shaina NC, National Spokesperson, Shiv Sena. The wellness session featured Dr. Mickey Mehta, who conducted an inspiring Yoga session, while Ms. Parmita Shroff led a rejuvenating Sound Healing session. The programme brought together members in the true spirit of wellness, harmony, and holistic growth, reinforcing not only professional relationships but also our collective commitment to physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
Knowledge sharing remains one of ANMI's foremost priorities. During June, the ANMI National Secretariat, in association with NISM, successfully organised a webinar on "AI-driven Emerging Cyber Security Threats and Defenses" on 10th June 2026, followed by a webinar in association with NSE on "NSE MF Invest – Revolutionizing India's Mutual Fund Ecosystem" on 12th June 2026. The National Secretariat also organised another highly informative webinar in association with NSDL on "Upcoming Nomination Circular – Effective from 1st September 2026 & Form 121 Submission Consent Related Process" on 18th June 2026. All three sessions witnessed excellent participation and reflected ANMI's unwavering commitment to keeping members informed about emerging technologies, evolving market developments, regulatory changes, and industry best practices.
Our regional councils have continued to make commendable contributions. ANMI Northern Region successfully organised the Knowledge Series – Uttar Pradesh Chapter Members Meet on 25th May, 2026 and the Volatility Dynamics and Density Correlation in Derivative Trading on 29th May, 2026, fostering technical learning and member engagement. ANMI Western Region conducted a webinar in association with NCL on “Overview of NCMS API & NMASS Extranet,” on 11th June 2026, organized its Western Region Members Meet on 19th June, 2026 and, conducted another webinar on “KRA Billing Methodology and KRA Tariff Applicable from 1st April 2026” on 24th June 2026. ANMI Eastern Region on 22nd June, 2026 conducted a webinar on Electronic Gold Receipts – EGRs in association with NSE further strengthening operational knowledge among members.
These initiatives reflect ANMI’s continuous efforts to promote professional excellence, knowledge enhancement, regulatory awareness, and stronger collaboration across the industry.
As we move ahead, we eagerly look forward to celebrating ANMI Day, one of our most significant annual occasions, along with several knowledge sessions, networking initiatives, investor awareness programmes, and member engagement activities planned in the coming months. I encourage every member to actively participate and contribute towards making these initiatives even more impactful.
On behalf of the ANMI National Council, I sincerely thank each member, our regulators, exchanges, depositories, industry partners, and all stakeholders for their unwavering support and continued trust in ANMI. Together, we shall continue to strengthen India’s capital markets while upholding the highest standards of professionalism, ethics, and investor confidence.
Let us continue moving forward with confidence, resilience, and a shared commitment towards building a stronger, more transparent, and globally competitive Indian capital market.
The future belongs not to those who predict change, but to those who prepare for it and help shape it.
Warm Regards,
Kamlesh Shroff
National President, ANMI
