India's financial services industry is going through a drastic transformation. While digital disruption is taking over the industry, new business models are emerging, and customer dynamics are changing significantly. As the industry undergoes a remarkable shift, the summit focussed on the top five 'Game Changers' of the BFSI & FinTech industry namely, Inclusive BFSI Models, Tech Tsunami, Next-Gen Customer Experience, Regulatory Sandboxes, and Cybersecurity Revolution.

Speaking at the summit, Avinash Gupta, Managing Director & CEO – India, Dun & Bradstreet, said, "The Indian financial services industry is at the cusp of drastic transformation, with evolving business models and shifting customer dynamics. FinTech companies are driving the evolution of BFSI by pioneering digitally accessible and low-cost banking, payments, and lending solutions. There is lot of banking happening without banks; FinTech NBFCs are gaining centre stage in retail lending, while InsureTechs are revolutionising the insurance industry. Clearly if the game is changing, it is important to know who the 'Game Changers' are."

"In FY23, the BFSI and FinTech companies contributed to 6% to the GDP. The consolidated balance sheet of Scheduled Commercial Banks (SCBs) showed a double-digit expansion of 12.2%, which is the highest in nine years. All the 12 public sector banks together recorded a 57% jump in net profit, crossing the Rs 1 lakh crore mark. During the same period, NBFCs also witnessed double digit expansion, with 16% increase in loan advances. Aggregate income of NBFCs increased by 21.5% in FY23 as against 8.5% in FY22. Furthermore, India is now among the fastest growing FinTech markets, being the second most funded startup sector in the world," added Gupta.

The summit also witnessed the launch of the 16th edition of the 'India's Leading BFSI & FinTech Companies 2024' publication. The publication is a compendium of leading companies within the domestic BFSI industry, including scheduled commercial banks, small finance banks, life, non-life and reinsurance companies, AMCs, NBFCs, equity broking houses and select FinTech companies.
