The amendments introduce new definitions, including Capital Market Intermediaries, Collateral Security, Non-debt Mutual Funds, and Primary Security, while deleting certain earlier provisions. A comprehensive framework for Capital Market Exposure (CME) has been introduced, covering both direct and indirect exposures such as investments, credit facilities, underwriting commitments, and derivative exposures. Prudential ceilings have been prescribed, limiting aggregate CME to 40% of Tier 1 capital and direct exposure to 20% of eligible capital base, with provisions for intra-day exposure limits.
