CNI President Pandey Urges Developing Capital Market as an Engine for Economic Growth
Birendra Raj Pandey : Acknowledging the significant strides the capital market has made over the past decade, Pandey noted that the opening of over 7.5 million Demat accounts and the market capitalization reaching 66 percent of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) are highly positive indicators. However, he cautioned against measuring market development solely by the rise in the NEPSE index. Instead, he stressed that the true impact of a growing capital market must be reflected in the real economy through tangible industrialization, investment, and job creation.

NCC President Agrawal Stresses Shifting Economy Towards 'Market-Based Financing'
Expressing dissatisfaction with past policy flaws that fueled speculative trends in the Nepali stock market, Agrawal highlighted the confusion caused by the 'Double ISIN' system (separate pricing for promoter and public shares), which created price discrepancies of up to 50 percent for shares of the exact same company. Welcoming the Securities Board of Nepal's (SEBON) ongoing preparation to implement a single ISIN system, he stressed the need for a transparent environment where share prices are determined strictly by a company's actual management capacity and future returns.

Market on Edge: NEPSE Seeks Bottom as Corporate Giants Fuel Debt-Driven Expansion
Financial experts warn that injecting billions of borrowed rupees into a highly volatile stock market and illiquid, under-construction projects could backfire if the market fails to sustain a bullish run. While corporate groups are successfully leveraging their strong market presence and banking access, the lack of dedicated risk management frameworks and formal investment policies in these newly formed entities remains a critical concern. As NEPSE struggles to break its structural downtrend, this massive influx of debt-financed capital serves as a double-edged sword for Nepal's broader economic stability.

PM Relief Fund Reaches Over Rs 6.3 Billion; Rs 65 Million Additional Grant Disbursed to 15 Local Bodies
Local governments are strictly mandated to utilize these grants for essential post-disaster services rather than arbitrary expenditures. The budget must be channeled into restoring disrupted critical infrastructure—such as roads, drinking water, communication, and electricity—along with repairing damaged schools and health posts. Furthermore, the funds are designated for constructing temporary shelters and distributing immediate relief packages to displaced families.
