Although the HLCCFM meets occasionally, other technical committees/groups formed among RBI, SEBI, IRDA and PFRDA as per its directions, meet to discuss and sort out issues relating to capital market exposure of regulated entities and developments in the financial markets having implications cutting across different regulators. Actions taken by these sub-committees are reported to the HLCCFM for further deliberations.
