Sebi launches Saa₹thi 2.0 mobile app on personal finance
Market regulator the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) launched 'Saa₹thi 2.0' mobile app in Mumbai on Monday. The updated Saa₹thi app has introduced a user-friendly interface with comprehensive tools aimed at simplifying complex financial concepts, a Sebi release said.
It includes financial calculators, and has modules that introduce and explain KYC procedures, mutual funds, ETFs, buying and selling shares on stock exchanges, investor grievances redressal mechanism, and the Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform. Additionally, the app features a range of videos designed to assist investors in their personal finance planning.
Commenting on the launch, Ananth Narayan G, Whole Time Member said the updated Saa₹thi app would prove to be an unbiased, objective, and trusted source of investment information at a time when social media is replete with biased or misleading information.
«The Saa₹thi app serves this purpose by empowering investors with reliable and essential insights into the securities market. This tool can be especially useful for young investors who are at the beginning of their financial journey,” Narayan G said.
“The content within the app is dynamic, allowing us to keep pace with the rapidly evolving market conditions. We actively seek public suggestions to further refine and enhance the Saa₹thi app, ensuring it continues to serve our investors,” he added.
The Saa₹thi app is now available for download on Google Play Store and the iOS App Store.
