MD & CEO
NSE
Thematic
Presentation
C
hitra Ramkrishna is the first
woman MD and CEO of NSE.
Starting out as a chartered
accountant, her first brush with
finance came in 1985 when she
joined the project finance division
of IDBI. Ramkrishna then had a
stint at SEBI. The association of
Ms. Ramkrishna with the NSE
dates back to the formative years
when deliberations were on to
create a modern stock exchange
with a national presence.
Ms. Ramkrishna has undertaken
several key initiatives at the NSE
that has had far-reaching impact
and ensured the exchange
remained India's most premiere
bourse. She was instrumental in
setting up a pan-India VSAT
network and building the
infrastructure and legislative
framework for India's first
depositor.
She was selected as the woman of
the year in the Business
Leadership Awards by the Forbes
magazine recently, and was also
ranked 17th in the list of top
global women business leaders by
Fortune magazine, USA. She is the
second
most
powerful
businesswoman in India in this
list. She has been featured in the
list of top 30 women achievers by
the Business Today group for the
last four successive years.
Indian exchanges at inflection, led by forces of
regulation and technology
Takeaways from CEO Track
We hosted Ms Chitra Ramakrishna, MD and CEO of National Stock Exchange as part of CEO
Track at our conference. Here are the key takeaways from her presentation.
Exchanges an integral part of the global financial system:
The global financial
system is estimated at USD318t and moves USD74t around the world each day.
Within this, 63 regulated exchanges represent a total market capitalization of
USD64t and a total trading value of USD111t, which is >65% of the global GDP,
signifying the importance and criticality of exchanges in the system.
India an important contributing engine to global growth:
In multiple aspects,
the Asia-Pacific region has been the major global growth driver, and India is a major
contributor in this. As per IOMA’s derivatives survey, APAC was the top contributor
to global growth, and India was the top contributor to APAC. This also gets reflected
in the performance of NSE, which witnessed a growth of 61.2% to 3.03b contracts,
second only to CME Group.
Regulatory changes and technological advancements shaping global capital
markets:
Global capital markets are driven by two factors: [1] external aspects of
capital, clients and business diversification, and [2] internal push from the need to
optimize processes, systems and infrastructure. Regulations and technology both
play the role of critical pillars in capital markets. Regulations are being aimed at
risk
reduction
and improvement of
transparency
and
competitive forces.
Regulatory principles today presume that markets will talk to each other more and
that players will keep driving that infrastructure. The regulatory principles are
raising standards for players across the board. Players need to cope with global
benchmarks for capital requirement and risk management. Consequently, a
realignment of processes, systems and even business models is being necessitated.
Regulatory changes driving innovation as an outcome:
Regulatory changes
have been driving innovation, which is in fact a result of the core intent to reduce
risk, standardize, and increase transparency. Regulations are likely to drive
innovation in multiple areas including security (NFC, Biometric, Active Surveillance),
data privacy, cyber security, and means and measures to aid financial inclusion.

th
Role of technology in driving next leg of growth
Technology plays an important role in driving product and service innovation, and
can result in higher efficiency. While it has played a major role in increasing
transparency in the past, going forward, it has the potential to impact five key areas:
Post trade resilience
– Technology can transform the post trade process by
increasing integrity and reducing costs by altering collateral management and
optimizing minimum capital requirements.
AI and analytics
– The increasing output of data can be better monetized using
analytics, which can be used for client risk profiling, capital management,
devising products based on behavioral patterns, etc. A lot of these areas are yet
untapped by the financial industry.
Investment technology
– The use of technology can facilitate developments at
both ends of the spectrum: creating highly customized and sophisticated
products for the premium end, and creating basic products centered around
passive investments for the masses (thus, furthering financial inclusion).
Funding platforms
– Various alternate funding platforms can be created to
address the unmet needs of various pockets of investors and capital raisers.
Similarly, product offerings by FinTech companies can also be tested and scaled
up to benefit the ecosystem at large.
Core market infrastructure
– Technology can continue developing latency,
speed and efficiency of physical assets.
Advantage NSE:
NSE, which was put among the top 15 exchanges in the world by
WFE/IOMA acts as the barometer of India’s capital markets. It has been leading the
way in leveraging technological advancements in strengthening infrastructure,
augmenting a pan India presence, developing fault tolerant servers, ramping up
detection capabilities by integrating national and international surveillance feeds,
and predictive and active surveillance, initiating social media mining to catch scams,
phishing and social engineering. Using technology more suited to the ground level
requirements of India will be a big piece in financial inclusion. Digital ways of
onboarding customers could be a game changing driver for greater penetration in
the market. Leaders like NSE enjoy strengths today as a distribution platform,
moving on from offering only equities to offering a range of products including
mutual funds and sovereign gold bonds among others.
Multiple business verticals to remain globally competitive:
The advantage of
India’s late entry into the financial market has been that we can accommodate
multiple aspects of the market (cash, derivatives, clearing, settlements, etc) under
one roof, in a highly efficient manner. At the same time, underserved markets like
debt, currency and SMEs can be built on these strong foundation layers. With
technology at the center of new product and market opportunities, India can lead its
way to the top-3 markets globally. Opportunity size is huge – globally, debt markets
are significantly larger at at least 10-12x the size of the underlying cash markets.
Issuances in corporate bonds are still <1% of the total credit being issued.
