| Fiscal Year | 2081/2082 |
| Main Concern | Lack of provisions in the budget to address share market issues |
| Investor Issue | Capital tied up, lack of government intervention |
| Securities Board Chairman Appointment | The selection committee requires at least three candidates |

Finance Minister Pun explained how they chose the Chairman of the Securities Board of Nepal. The selection committee must recommend at least three candidates to the Council of Ministers. Legally, they cannot proceed with interviews if there are only two candidates.
