He also invited all stakeholders to come forward with suggestions to further boost the bond market ecosystem.

Besides, he said that Sebi has taken a number of steps to rationalise their governing structure and for close monitoring of ratings and it would consider further necessary changes in norms for them in consultation with stakeholders.
