The Securities Board of Nepal (SEBON) is facing growing pressure over its delay in approving initial public offerings (IPOs), particularly from investors in the hydropower sector. Investors have strongly opposed the halt, calling for an immediate resumption of the approval process and intensifying lobbying efforts. However, SEBON has maintained that regulatory amendments are underway, making it difficult to approve IPOs for companies with a net worth below 90 or those seeking premium pricing. https://nepalipaisa.com/news-detail/78914
