Nepal Stock Exchange has introduced the IT Audit Guidelines 2026, requiring brokerage firms to undergo comprehensive technology audits at least once every two years. Newly licensed brokers must complete their first audit within six months of operation. The review will assess Trading Management Systems (TMS), server security, firewall protection, mobile applications, and data backup and encryption protocols. The measure aims to reduce cyber risks and strengthen investor confidence in Nepal’s digital trading environment.
