About the IFSCA
The International Financial Services Centres Authority (IFSCA) has been established on April 27, 2020 under the International Financial Services Centres Authority Act, 2019. It is headquartered at GIFT City, Gandhinagar in Gujarat.
As the dynamic nature of business in the IFSCs requires a high degree of inter-regulatory coordination within the financial sector,
the IFSCA has been established as a unified regulator with a holistic vision in order to promote ease of doing business in IFSC
and provide world class regulatory environment. The main objective of the IFSCA is to develop a strong global connect and focus
on the needs of the Indian economy as well as to serve as an international financial platform for the entire region and the global economy as a whole.
The IFSCA is a unified authority for the development and regulation of financial products, financial services and financial institutions in the International
Financial Services Centre (IFSC) in India. At present, the GIFT IFSC is the maiden international financial services centre in India. Prior to the establishment
of IFSCA, the domestic financial regulators, namely, RBI, SEBI, PFRDA and IRDAI regulated the business in IFSC.
