The RBI further said the list also contains names of entities/platforms/websites which appear to be promoting unauthorised entities/ETPs, including through advertisements of such unauthorised entities or claiming to be providing training/advisory services.
“This list is not exhaustive. An entity not appearing in the list should not be assumed to be authorised by the RBI,” it added.
The authorisation status of any person/ETP can be ascertained from the list of authorised persons and authorised ETPs. (PTI)
