Fin-Tech

We empower financial technology companies with tailored legal strategies to foster growth and innovation. Our team addresses regulatory compliance, data protection, and contract negotiations.

As one of the fastest-growing financial technology markets globally, India is home to over 2,000 recognized fintech startups, with the market projected to reach approximately USD 150 billion by 2023, a significant rise from USD 50 billion in 2021. The sector has garnered USD 29 billion in funding from January 2017 to July 2022, claiming nearly 14% of global investment and ranking second in deal volume.

The Indian government actively supports the fintech industry through initiatives such as joint working groups with the UK and Singapore, fostering regulatory cooperation, knowledge sharing, and joint development of innovative fintech solutions. Companies in this sector must navigate a complex regulatory landscape, complying with Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations, licensing requirements, and secure payment protocols. Recent trends indicate tightening norms, particularly regarding unregulated entities in digital lending and the facilitation of crypto assets.

Our firm has extensive experience advising a diverse range of clients, including financial institutions, regulatory bodies, multinational corporations, startups, credit rating agencies, and payment gateways. We provide strategic guidance on the intersection of technology and financial services, addressing complex legal challenges. Our services encompass drafting commercial agreements, obtaining necessary licenses, structuring innovative commercial platforms, and offering regulatory advice on legislative frameworks, compliance requirements, data protection, and intellectual property rights.

Our team also routinely advises clients operating within the cryptocurrency and digital asset space, providing comprehensive legal and policy-related support tailored to this dynamic sector.
