    A Burning Crisis in the Fintech world today
    Jul 19 2022
    On the very first episode of The F-Word, our host Sahil Kini takes you deeper into a conversation that revolves around the recent mandate by the Reserve Bank of India that barred non-bank wallets and prepaid cards from loading their credit lines on to their platforms. This has jolted the Indian Fintech giants. What are the ramifications of such a blow in the face of these companies? In what direction is the industry headed from here on? The episode deep dives into these nuances with ease. Sahil Kini, the host and the Cofounder and CEO of Bengaluru-based API infrastructure company Setu joins his long-time friend and CEO of Capital Mind Deepak Shenoy and Setu's General Counsel Vinay Kesari. Happy listening!
