The government on Thursday (February 27, 2025) appointed Finance and Revenue Secretary Tuhin Kanta Pandey as the new chairman of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI).
Mr. Pandey replaces Madhabi Puri Buch, who completes her three-year tenure on Friday (February 28, 2025).
The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet has approved the appointment of Mr. Pandey, IAS (OR:1987), Finance Secretary and Secretary, Department of Revenue, to the post of SEBI chairman, according to a government order issued late in the evening.
Mr. Pandey’s appointment is initially for a period of three years from the day he assumes charge, the order said.

The real issue is not reach but adequacy, as households may have life insurance but not enough cover to replace lost income, leaving them financially vulnerable.
