MCX, the country’s largest commodity exchange, has empaneled Lex Carta Pvt as the primary Online Dispute Resolution service provider.
The platform will go live on Wednesday.
A complaint/dispute initiated through the ODR portal will be referred to an ODR Institution empaneled by a Market Infrastructure Institution.
The ODR will provide an efficient mechanism for dispute resolution between investors/clients and all the stakeholders in the securities market.
The ODR portal has the necessary features to facilitate the enrolment of investors/client and market participants, allowing them to file their complaints/dispute and to upload relevant documents.
PS Reddy, Managing Director & CEO, MCX said with the onset of rapid digitisation in Indian financial markets, the online dispute resolution platform will empower the market participants to solve their disputes in a seamless and transparent manner with greater efficiency.
