SEBI-prescribed guidelines require custodians to segregate regulated and unregulated financial services into separate Strategic Business Units with arm's-length accounting and net worth assessed excluding SBU books; custodians offering unregulated services must disclose and obtain client acknowledgement of no SEBI recourse. Custodians must implement board-level governance committees, documented risk management policies, scalable IT capacity, Business Continuity Plans and Disaster Recovery Sites with specified resilience/distance standards, annual DR drills and auditor review. A framework for orderly wind-down assuring seamless client portability is mandated. Certain duplicate reporting obligations to SEBI are discontinued. Specific implementation deadlines are prescribed for wind-down and DR compliance.
