Mumbai: Markets regulator Sebi, in consultation with social media platforms, has removed 70,000 misleading handles and posts since the implementation of the fin-influencer framework last year, said its whole-time member Ananth Narayan G on Friday.

Amid concerns over foreign portfolio investors selling equities, the Sebi’s whole-time member said the overall flows are not as bad as one would imagine and stressed that they “remain invested” in India. The unregistered investment advisors and research analysts are a “menace” who are cashing in on the rising interest in investments, he said. “Since October 2024, Sebi has worked with social media companies to bring down over 70,000 misleading handles/posts,” he said while addressing an event organised by registered investment advisors here.
