Creating Value via Purposeful Innovation, India’s Fintech Story

From the Editor's Desk...

An industry report states that India’s digital payments grew a whopping 160 times in the last 20 years, taking the country to the number one position in real-time digital transactions. Digital technologies and tools have unlocked new economic opportunities by democratising financial services, making these more accessible and convenient. While this has catalysed economic and societal progress, there is still a long way to go.
