SEBI lays the framework for social stock exchange (SSE)

SSE functions as a regulated funding platform to allow for-profit social enterprises and not-for-profit organisations with a social purpose, to raise fund.

Why SSE?

• By leveraging private sector participation government can reduce the burden of achieving development goals.
• Better project implementation as the performance of enterprises listed in SSE would be closely monitored.
• SSE will work under the regulatory ambit of SEBI.

Social audit should be mandated.
