CS Professional · IFSCA - Regulations, Listing and Compliances · Overview of FinTech and Service Providers in IFSC
Kaveri Analytics wants to enter GIFT IFSC and offer a FinTech solution to regulated financial institutions. It is unsure whether it must first obtain a separate licence for each use case. Under the IFSCA FinTech framework, which description best captures the Sandbox's role for such an entrant?
The Sandbox is a voluntary route for testing innovative products in a controlled environment with regulatory relaxations. It is not a mandatory precondition for every FinTech activity, nor a tax scheme or listing platform, so Kaveri may choose to use it.
- AA mandatory step that every FinTech must complete before starting any operations
- BA voluntary route for testing innovative offerings in a controlled environment, not a pre-condition to all FinTech activityCorrect
- CA tax holiday scheme available only to banks
- DA listing platform for FinTech start-up shares
Explanation
The Sandbox is an optional, controlled testing environment for innovations. It is not a compulsory gateway for all FinTech entry, it is not a tax scheme and it is not a listing venue, so the other descriptions are wrong.
