Pragati – Sahamati Newsletter November 2022

From the CEO’s desk

The month of November witnessed some key developments in the AA ecosystem! RBI notified that GSTN would be a Financial Information Provider. This will further strengthen cash-flow based lending for the credit starved MSME sector.

During the month, we crossed 2.5 million data transfers which translates to ~55% month on month growth. While we witnessed AA adoption picking up pace across Banking, Insurance and other sectors, Live FIPs were actively working on interoperability by integrating with all operating account aggregators to meet the demand. Cross sectoral use cases, and increased enablement by AAs/FIPs is expected to further boost data transfers in the next five years.

Such insights into Growth and Evolution of AA were discussed in detail in Sahamati’s first whitepaper published during the month. Sahamati Support Portal, which was launched in October, also received good traction during the month enabling healthy collaboration among participants.
