India ranks 7th in World Bank’s minority investor protection list

30 Oct 2014 Evaluate

The World Bank has ranked India at 7th for minority investor protection ahead of developed countries like the US, Japan, France and Germany. India has also been ranked best among the BRICS nations, out of which South Africa is placed at 17th, Brazil (35), Russia (100) and China (132). Major countries ranked below India include the US at 25th place, France (17), Korea and Italy (21), Japan (35), Germany (51), Australia (71) and Switzerland (78).

India’s ranking in terms of investor protection has showed a significant improvement from 21st position last year and World Bank attributed this improvement to various reforms launched in India over the past year. New company act as well as amendment in SEBI’s norms has brought a lot of norms to all listed companies in the country and to various market entities.

The World Bank’s report highlighted that India strengthened minority investor protections by requiring greater disclosure of conflicts of interest by board members, introducing additional safeguards for shareholders of privately held companies and increasing the remedies available in case of prejudicial related-party transactions.

Protection of minority investors is one of the ten sub- rankings based on which the World Bank has prepared the ease of doing business report. The World Bank has placed India at 142 rank among 189 countries in its 'Ease of Doing Business' report, a drop by two places from the last year's ranking.
