Days ahead of the annual budget, a top American business advocacy group, in a set of recommendations to the India’s Union Finance Minister, has recommended urgent action to address the distortions and inefficiencies arising out of regulatory mandates in the banking sector. Washington DC-based US-India Strategic Partnership Forum (USISPF), which represents leading Fortune 500 companies , in a set of recommendations argued that to improve the ease of doing business for institutional investors, the process to register as Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor (QFII) should be streamlined, and the ability to adopt a single window clearance will enable smoother setting up of companies in India.
