NEPSE has instructed all the insurance companies and BFIs to make sure that the share trading of all the members of BOD and their family members, executives (CEO, DCEO, CFOs, and CA’s involved in crucial decision making) have been restricted. It has been instructed to withhold the share trading in the secondary market with the support of CDS and Clearing House and report the same to NEPSE.
