Written up from the same chapter

• Alternative Investment FundA privately pooled investment vehicle registered with SEBI that raises money from select Indian or foreign investors under a defined investment policy — never from the public at large.
• Asset Management CompanyThe company that runs a mutual fund's schemes day to day — appointed by the sponsor or trustees with SEBI's approval, and paid a fee out of the scheme rather than a share of its profits.
• Call moneyUncollateralised overnight lending and borrowing of funds between scheduled commercial banks and primary dealers — the shortest segment of the Indian money market.
• Clearing corporationThe entity that steps between every buyer and seller in the derivatives segment by novation, becoming the counterparty to both sides and guaranteeing that the trade settles.

• Credit Information CompanyAn RBI-licensed company that collects borrowers' repayment records from lenders, stores them, and supplies credit information reports and credit scores to specified users.
