NPS expands investment options with New Development Bank bonds. The Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority has amended National Pension System guidelines effective May 13, 2026, allowing NPS funds to invest in rupee-denominated bonds issued by the New Development Bank. This expansion applies to both government and private sector pension schemes, broadening the investment universe beyond previous restrictions to IBRD, IFC, and ADB bonds. The regulatory change maintains existing credit rating requirements of AA or above and maturity specifications, ensuring investment quality standards remain intact. This development provides NPS investors with greater diversification opportunities while adhering to established risk management protocols.
