The industry is expected to hit a staggering $340 billion this year, and the pace of innovation shows no signs of slowing down. At M2P Fintech, we closely watch how technologies like AI, machine learning, and RPA are transforming the way we experience financial services.&nbsp; That being said, from AI-powered wealth management tools to the new innovations in neobanking, here are 10 key predictions we believe will shape the future of fintech in 2025.&nbsp;<h2 class="heading-node" id="fbqcyqbu6" style="text-align: justify">1. Embedded Finance will surge&nbsp;</h2>Embedded finance industry is projected to rise drastically in 2025, and in the upcoming years, it is estimated that embedded finance market will grow from $115.8 billion in 2024 to $251.5 billion by 2029 globally. This industry has diverse applications, from payments and banking to investing and beyond.&nbsp; Embedded finance will play a pivotal role in digital businesses, as the consumer seeks a more seamless and integrated experience. Embedded finance in India is expected to flourish from $5.8 billion in 2024 to $28.6 billion by 2029.&nbsp; Trends that are likely to shape this space include AI and automation, blockchain and smart contracts, PSD3 regulations, and connected industries. As more consumers realize the convenience and value of embedded finance, its adoption will continue to rise.&nbsp;<h2 class="heading-node" id="opuf2tynx" style="text-align: justify">2. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to expand its role&nbsp;</h2>Robotic Process Automation (RPA) in financial services is set to evolve beyond the basic automation in 2025. Driven by trends such as hyper-automation, advanced AI integration, and the emergence of RPA-as-a-service, the global RPA market is projected to reach $13.87 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 24.31%. In India specifically, the market for RPA is anticipated to reach $787.3 million by 2032.&nbsp;&nbsp; With more and more organizations prioritizing cost savings, high productivity, and a neat customer experience to meet the demands, making the market for automation is expected to expand wider. This growth enables FIs to automate complex processes and enhance operational efficiency and customer service, all while ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.&nbsp;<h2 class="heading-node" id="wmnaqoqt2" style="text-align: justify">3. Wealthtech industry is on an upward trajectory&nbsp;</h2>The wealthtech industry is primed to experience rapid expansion in 2025 with a projection to reach $12.07 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 13.9%. &nbsp; The combined wealth of millennials and Gen Z, along with their preference for digital-first solutions, will drive innovations in the wealth management space. The integration of wealth management with gaming and social media will enhance the adaptability of the wealthtech platform.&nbsp; The rise of digital portfolios, rather than the physical assets, marks the investments in the financial instruments, which now make up 33% of India’s GDP. Especially post-pandemic, the usage of mutual funds and demat account inflows reached unprecedented levels.&nbsp;&nbsp; Looking forward to 2025, India’s wealthtech market carries immense potential; traditional hubs like Delhi and Mumbai continue to drive growth. Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities offer untapped markets for first-time investors who are eager to invest in these digital portfolios according to their risks and needs.&nbsp;<h2 class="heading-node" id="t77na0rlb" style="text-align: justify">&nbsp;4. Blockchain to take the lead&nbsp;</h2>The finance industry will gain more momentum in the blockchain race, as the technology is heavily focused on cheaper and faster financial transactions across borders. In the future, the adoption of blockchain will rise significantly to build more transparent and secure financial systems.&nbsp;&nbsp; At a CAGR of 82.2%, experts anticipate the global blockchain market to reach $1,235.72 billion by 2030. As consumers across the world need secure transactions, the opportunity for blockchain technology will immensely grow in the near future. Security and transparency, decentralization, and efficiency will boost the rise of blockchain technology.&nbsp;&nbsp; India’s blockchain market is predicted to reach revenue of $53,182.9 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 89.4%. Scalability, regulation, complexity, energy consumption, and security are the major challenges blockchain technology must overcome for its growth.&nbsp;<h2 class="heading-node" id="pil7my7iz" style="text-align: justify">5. AI will transform the industry&nbsp;</h2>This year, artificial intelligence (AI) is expected to revolutionize the fintech industry by improving operational efficiency and customer experiences. Projections indicate that the market for AI in fintech will reach $31.71 billion in 2027, steered by factors such as threat prevention, preventive analysis, demand for personalized user experience, high security, and faster transactions on the go.&nbsp;&nbsp; On the other hand, experts predict that India's market will reach $8.30 billion in 2025, at a CAGR of 27.86% to reach a market volume of $28.36 billion by 2030. By leveraging AI, fintech companies aim to create more inclusive financial ecosystems, ultimately making financial services more accessible and responsive to diverse consumer needs.&nbsp;<img src="https://m2p-website-file.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/m2p-website-file/marketing-cms/m2p-blog/2025/02/2000x1000-copy-100-1.webp" alt="Top fintech trends and predictions for 2025" title="" width="100%" height="358"><h2 class="heading-node" id="487atgitr" style="text-align: justify">6. Internet of Things (IOT) in fintech is set to snowball&nbsp;</h2>By 2029, the global IoT market is projected to reach $1.56 trillion with a 10.49% increase in market volume. With advancements in 5G connectivity, digital twin technology, edge computing, AI and ML, and blockchain, the rise of IoT looks promising. &nbsp; The Indian market of IoT is projected to expand to $49.82 billion by 2029. From smart payments to data-driven risk management, the IOT-fintech synergy is about reimagining financial services by creating personalization, security, efficiency, and accessibility for the consumers.&nbsp;&nbsp; The combination of IoT and fintech presents a unique opportunity that could transform the way customers bank, insure, invest, and transact financial opportunities.<h2 class="heading-node" id="srnqnt96b" style="text-align: justify">7. Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) will mature&nbsp;</h2>BNPL is expected to thrive in 2025, with the global market reaching $344 billion. Financial analysts attribute this growth to several factors, including the rising adoption of digital wallets and mobile payments, improved credit assessment models, increased regulatory oversight, and growing consumer demand for flexible and inclusive payment options.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In India, the BNPL market is set to experience notable market expansion, estimated to reach $17.96 billion by the end of 2025. Surge in e-commerce, digital P2M payments, and increase in millennial and Gen Z consumer spending capacity would fuel this growth.&nbsp; While the competition among payment service providers is expected to drive innovation and accessibility, analysts suggest high interest rates and associated fees can potentially hinder growth and adoption.&nbsp;&nbsp; As the sector matures, it is likely to undergo consolidation, with market players focusing more on responsible lending practices. This shift will be driven by growing scrutiny from financial regulators, ensuring that BNPL services remain sustainable and consumer friendly.&nbsp;<h2 class="heading-node" id="jectuj0x1" style="text-align: justify">8. Open Banking to become more popular&nbsp;</h2>The state of open banking in 2025 looks incredibly promising and transformative. Open banking is set to become more popular in regions like the UK and Europe, making the global open banking payments transactions value increase to $330 billion by 2027.&nbsp;&nbsp; On the other hand, with financial institutions, regulators, and fintechs working together, the sector will see significant developments, enabling secured data sharing and collaboration between financial institutions, customers, and companies.&nbsp;&nbsp; In India, the open banking market is forecasted to reach a revenue of $7,485.8 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 29.8%. Further, financial analysts predict that artificial intelligence will play a crucial role in open banking by improving fraud detection, offering more accurate financial analytics, and providing personalized recommendations.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;<h2 class="heading-node" id="wpoc6ue18" style="text-align: justify">9. Neobanking sector will flourish&nbsp;</h2>2025 looks like a promising year with stellar growth and innovation for the neobanking market. Emerging trends such as the increasing adoption of AI, digital partnerships, shared banking, personal finance combined with market expansion, a digital-first approach, personalized services, and the integration of blockchain technology are expected to fuel this growth.&nbsp;&nbsp; The low-cost model for end customers, which offers extremely low monthly fees for banking services like minimum balance maintenance, withdrawals, and deposits, will propel the global neobanking market to reach $394.6 billion by 2026.&nbsp;&nbsp; While the neobanking market in India is set to reach $138.70 billion in 2025, its success is based on the adoption by millennials, micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), and those who have high income and earnings.&nbsp;<h2 class="heading-node" id="nttnp100z" style="text-align: justify">10. Gamification market is expected to boom&nbsp;</h2>Gamification is emerging as a pivotal trend in the fintech sector, significantly enhancing customer engagement and retention. This trend is expected to strengthen substantially in 2025, driven by increased adoption across various sectors, including banking and retail, as businesses leverage gamification to enhance customer experiences and foster loyalty.&nbsp;&nbsp; In India, the gamification trend is gaining momentum as fintech apps are adopting gamification strategies that resonate with local users. Elements such as rewards points, badges, and challenges motivate users to engage more deeply with apps. This not only enhances user engagement but also promotes financial literacy among the younger demographic.&nbsp; Want to stay ahead of these fintech trends?&nbsp;&nbsp; Explore how <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/contact-us/?activeKey=1">M2P Fintech</a> can help you leverage fintech for your business.&nbsp; <a class="link fui-Link ___1idfs5o f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1hu3pq6 f11qmguv f19f4twv f1tyq0we f1g0x7ka fhxju0i f1qch9an f1cnd47f fqv5qza f1vmzxwi f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh ftqa4ok f2hkw1w fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1h8hb77 f1x7u7e9 f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn" href="https://m2pfintech.com/newsletter/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Subscribe</a>&nbsp;to our newsletter and get the latest fintech news, views, and insights, directly to your inbox.

Fast forward to today, imagine a system that empowers parents to oversee their children’s purchases with pre-set spending limits.That’s UPI Circle for you.Now, let’s consider another scenario. You’re an entrepreneur looking to grant your staff the flexibility to manage administrative expenses while maintaining oversight of the accounts.With the <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/blog/upi-the-driver-of-economic-growth-and-inclusion/">UPI</a> Circle feature, you can do just that.The possibilities are endless—these are just a couple of ways UPI Circle can transform how you manage and monitor expenses effortlessly.Let’s explore the transformative potential of UPI Circle, from its functionality and benefits to its impact on both banks and users. Before that, what’s <a class="link" href="https://www.linkedin.com/posts/m2pfintech_upi-circle-activity-7288514156675117056-TB6t?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=member_desktop">UPI circle</a> in its true essence.<h2 class="heading-node" id="uwaqfzxpv" style="text-align: left">What is UPI Circle?</h2>UPI Circle, introduced by NPCI, enhances digital payment accessibility by allowing primary users to add family members or friends as secondary users. The secondary users can make transactions using the primary user's bank account, within predefined limits. This feature is designed to offer UPI access to individuals who may not have their own bank accounts or are reluctant to use digital payments, making it easier for them to engage in the digital economy.<h2 class="heading-node" id="r5744lsd7" style="text-align: left">Why the UPI Circle Initiative?</h2>UPI Circle streamlines access to digital payments and simplifies the adoption of formal banking systems for millions of unbanked individuals. This innovation not only promotes financial literacy but also opens doors to new economic opportunities for underserved communities. UPI Circle’s impact goes far beyond convenience—it’s a catalyst for accelerating India’s financial inclusion<h2 class="heading-node" id="916qd0uz5" style="text-align: left">How does UPI Circle Work?</h2>The UPI Circle enables a primary UPI user to delegate transaction authority to a trusted secondary user. This delegation can be customized as partial or full, based on the primary user’s preferences and requirements. It is especially beneficial for the elderly, differently abled, or those who need support in managing their finances.<img src="https://m2p-website-file.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/m2p-website-file/marketing-cms/m2p-blog/2025/01/Sub-Banner-1-100.webp" alt="M2P Fintech" title="" width="100%" height="317"><h3 class="heading-node" id="vuzvmp180" style="text-align: left">Full Delegation</h3>This mode allows the primary user to assign a monthly transaction limit of up to ₹15,000 to the secondary user. Within this limit, the secondary user can independently make payments, with a maximum cap of ₹5,000 per transaction. It enables the secondary user to transact freely within the set boundaries.<h3 class="heading-node" id="3wwk554wb" style="text-align: left">Partial Delegation</h3>In this mode, the secondary user must seek the primary user’s approval for every payment request.

It encompasses various functionalities, including payment setup, transaction management, settlement &amp; payout management, and customer support integration, all aimed at improving operational efficiency. By managing merchant relationships and processing transactions efficiently, an MMS empowers businesses to meet the demands of today’s fast-paced digital payment landscape.&nbsp;<h2 class="heading-node" id="ju65rri8k" style="text-align: justify">Key Features of a Merchant Management System&nbsp;</h2><h3 class="heading-node" id="3vp4jewbb" style="text-align: justify">Merchant Onboarding&nbsp;</h3>The onboarding process begins with merchants submitting applications along with required documentation for verification. KYC procedures validate their identity and legitimacy through checks on business licenses and ownership details. A risk assessment follows, evaluating the merchant’s profile through credit checks and performance analysis, leading to application approval or rejection based on these findings.&nbsp;<h3 class="heading-node" id="sjb5avvar" style="text-align: justify">Account Management&nbsp;</h3>Merchants gain access to a user-friendly dashboard that allows them to manage their accounts, view transaction histories, and track performance.

Everything You Need to Know about Merchant Management System

<img src="https://m2p-website-file.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/m2p-website-file/marketing-cms/m2p-blog/2024/12/Right-LOS-partner-01-1.webp" alt="How to choose the right LOS partner?" title="" width="100%" height="253">The latest edition of CRIF High Mark's How India Lends report reveals impressive growth across various segments in India’s lending industry, even as some areas face deceleration. The consumption loans portfolio, which expanded by 15.2% year-over-year to ₹90.3 lakh crore as of March 2024, underscored the increasing demand for credit among Indian consumers. From meeting personal expenses to enhancing lifestyles, individuals and families are actively borrowing to support their consumption needs.Over the past few years, both marquee lenders and new entrants have digitized their lending value chains alike to meet customers’ expectations for convenience and speed.However, one significant challenge continues to persist – Choosing a <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/loan-origination-system/">Loan Origination System (LOS)</a> partner who not only augments customer service but also streamlines the entire digital lending supply chain to drive both profitability and accountability.&nbsp;The right LOS partner bridges this gap, ensuring seamless integration across the entire lending lifecycle.&nbsp;To make informed decisions, it's essential to grasp the intricacies of the loan origination process.&nbsp;First, a quick recap.<h2 class="heading-node" id="fvg7zo3tc" style="text-align: left">What is Loan Origination System (LOS)?</h2>A Loan Origination System (LOS) refers to a suite of software solutions that enable lenders to efficiently manage the entire lending journey. From pre-qualification and loan origination to credit assessment and handover to a Loan Management System (LMS), an LOS optimizes the lending value chain.&nbsp;Here’s a comprehensive overview of the loan origination process:&nbsp;<img src="https://m2p-website-file.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/m2p-website-file/marketing-cms/m2p-blog/2024/12/Right-LOS-partner-04.webp" alt="Stages of loan origination process" title="" id="subdlpb5j" width="100%" height="253">By consolidating data from various sources, LOS provides lenders with a unified, comprehensive view of their operations. The key benefits of an LOS include automating manual tasks, reducing loan processing time, and minimizing errors, which significantly enhance operational efficiency and reduce costs. This streamlined process allows lenders to focus on growth and innovation, ultimately improving customer satisfaction through faster loan approvals and a smoother borrower experience.Now that we have explored what an LOS is, let us turn our attention to&nbsp;<h2 class="heading-node" id="ojszmwq7x" style="text-align: left">How to Choose the Right Loan Origination System (LOS) Partner?&nbsp;</h2>Choosing an LOS partner may appear straightforward; however, making an informed decision necessitates careful consideration of various factors. While many digital lending solutions might seem similar, each digital lending business has distinct structural needs, just as no two businesses are identical. This highlights the importance of selecting a business partner who thoroughly understands and aligns with your objectives.&nbsp;With that said, here are the critical aspects to assess when shortlisting a trustworthy LOS partner.<h3 class="heading-node" id="w8ha2rtfx" style="text-align: left">1. Time-to-Market</h3>Accelerating time-to-market is a crucial differentiator for lenders seeking to capitalize on new opportunities in a dynamic market. A low-code platform with drag-and-drop functionality allows digital lenders to quickly develop, customize, and deploy applications without extensive coding expertise, significantly speeding up the loan origination process. This capability not only enhances operational efficiency but also empowers non-technical users to contribute effectively.&nbsp;Further, automating essential tasks such as data entry, document verification, and compliance checks minimizes manual effort and reduces errors, leading to greater accuracy. In a landscape where speed to market offers significant advantages, selecting an LOS that emphasizes rapid deployment is one of the key factors in maintaining a competitive edge.<h3 class="heading-node" id="0llokytlm" style="text-align: left">2. Omnichannel Sourcing</h3>Omnichannel sourcing in an LOS transforms the borrowing experience by offering a seamless journey across multiple channels—online, mobile, and in-branch. This approach enhances customer satisfaction through consistent interactions and real-time data synchronization, streamlining decision-making. It boosts operational efficiency by integrating touchpoints, reducing errors, and minimizing repetitive tasks.Ultimately, omnichannel sourcing leads to higher conversion rates and increased revenue growth, making it a win-win for both borrowers and lenders.<h3 class="heading-node" id="k4gbo9sus" style="text-align: left">3. Compliance</h3>A strong compliance framework is essential for a Loan Origination System to navigate the evolving regulatory landscape effectively. As regulations such as KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) become more stringent, it is crucial for lenders to continuously enhance their compliance efforts to avoid legal repercussions and maintain customer trust. For example, M2P Finflux’s one-click CART (Credit Assessment and Risk Tool) and CRAM (Credit Risk Assessment Model) analysis tools enable lenders to quickly assess credit risk and streamline decision-making processes, ensuring adherence to these regulatory requirements. Additionally, robust data security protocols are implemented to protect sensitive borrower information, safeguarding operations against potential breaches.This comprehensive approach not only helps in mitigating risks but also fosters a culture of accountability and transparency, ultimately enhancing the lender's reputation in a competitive market. By prioritizing compliance, an LOS can ensure operational integrity and build lasting relationships with customers in a rapidly changing financial environment.&nbsp;<h3 class="heading-node" id="kizaskqin" style="text-align: left">4. Seamless Integration</h3>Seamless integration is crucial for a Loan Origination System as it ensures smooth interoperability with existing technology stacks, including CRM systems, core banking systems, payment gateways, and credit bureaus. This integration minimizes challenges and enhances operational efficiency by facilitating efficient data flow across all platforms. With robust APIs and data connectors, lenders can streamline their processes, reducing delays and improving the overall digital lending experience.Seamless integration allows for real-time data synchronization, ensuring that all customer interactions are consistent and informed by the latest information. By enhancing collaboration between systems, an integrated LOS not only simplifies the lending process but also empowers lenders to make quicker, data-driven decisions while maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements. Therefore, a well-integrated LOS fosters a more agile and responsive digital lending environment, essential for meeting the demands of today's fast-paced financial landscape.&nbsp;<h3 class="heading-node" id="7qxvu6nr3" style="text-align: left">5. Customization &amp; User Experience</h3>Customization and user experience are vital factors for a Loan Origination System to effectively meet the diverse needs of lending businesses. M2P Finflux offers customizable workflows tailored to specific business requirements, allowing lenders to adapt processes, dashboards, and approval mechanisms for a smooth user experience.&nbsp;While many lending businesses may appear similar, their operational needs can vary significantly; thus, selecting a LOS partner with strong customizability is essential. Although out-of-the-box solutions may seem cost-effective initially, the demand for comprehensive customizations makes a technology partner capable of delivering a tailored LOS invaluable. Customization enhances borrower-friendly solutions, helping lenders differentiate themselves in a competitive market and retain borrowers longer.&nbsp;By prioritizing customization and user experience, an LOS can enhance customer satisfaction and position lenders for long-term success.&nbsp;<h2 class="heading-node" id="1fvxshlgo" style="text-align: left">Level up your Digital Lending Game&nbsp;</h2>When selecting a Loan Origination System partner, it’s essential to choose one with a forward-looking approach. A partner that prioritizes continuous innovation and regularly updates its platform to keep pace with industry trends is invaluable. The LOS should be adaptable to emerging technologies, such as mobile-first experiences and evolving regulatory requirements, ensuring that your digital lending operations remain agile, compliant, and poised for future growth.&nbsp;Ready to unlock the power of a future-ready LOS?&nbsp;<a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/contact-us/?activeKey=1">Book your demo</a> today!<a class="link fui-Link ___1idfs5o f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1hu3pq6 f11qmguv f19f4twv f1tyq0we f1g0x7ka fhxju0i f1qch9an f1cnd47f fqv5qza f1vmzxwi f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh ftqa4ok f2hkw1w fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1h8hb77 f1x7u7e9 f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn" href="https://m2pfintech.com/newsletter/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Subscribe</a>&nbsp;to our newsletter and get the latest fintech news, views, and insights, directly to your inbox.Follow us on&nbsp;<a class="link fui-Link ___1idfs5o f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1hu3pq6 f11qmguv f19f4twv f1tyq0we f1g0x7ka fhxju0i f1qch9an f1cnd47f fqv5qza f1vmzxwi f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh ftqa4ok f2hkw1w fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1h8hb77 f1x7u7e9 f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn" href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/m2pfintech/mycompany/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LinkedIn</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a class="link fui-Link ___1idfs5o f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1hu3pq6 f11qmguv f19f4twv f1tyq0we f1g0x7ka fhxju0i f1qch9an f1cnd47f fqv5qza f1vmzxwi f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh ftqa4ok f2hkw1w fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1h8hb77 f1x7u7e9 f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn" href="https://twitter.com/m2pfintech" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Twitter</a>&nbsp;for insightful fintech bytes curated for curious minds like you.

5 Key Factors for Selecting an Ideal Loan Origination System (LOS) Partner

<img src="https://m2p-website-file.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/m2p-website-file/marketing-cms/m2p-blog/2024/12/Finflux-Vishal-Miglani-012000-1251-1.webp" alt="M2P Fintech" title="" id="jnrncj69t" width="100%" height="500">Co-lending has remarkably evolved from a modest approach to boosting liquidity into a highly sought-after program, with businesses across industries vying for a share. While there is enough information about the program and its uniquity all over the internet, close to none detail the practicality of launching &amp; scaling co-lending program.To bridge this gap, we sought the expertise of industry veteran Mr. Vishal Miglani, Vice President of Strategic Alliances &amp; Collaborations at TruCap Finance Ltd. Mr. Miglani was kind enough to share his in-depth knowledge on the practicalities of implementing and expanding co-lending programs, offering a true view “from the trenches.”In 2021, TruCap Finance took a strategic step forward by adopting Finflux’s advanced Loan Origination System (LOS) and Loan Management System (LMS) suite. This move was pivotal in scaling TruCap’s lending book while lowering operational costs. With Finflux’s intelligent Business Rule Engine and configurable <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/loan-origination-system/">Loan Origination System (LOS)</a> &amp; <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/loan-management-system/">Loan Management System (LMS)</a>, TruCap has been able to process significantly higher loan volumes, boost productivity, and enhance overall operational efficiency. To date, they have successfully launched 17 co-lending programs using our LOS and LMS.During our candid session, Mr. Vishal delved deeper into the practicality of implementing a <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/blog/focus-rise-of-co-lending-model/">co-lending</a> program, the challenges &amp; complexities, how tech can solve them, etc. And further extended his expertise in outlining the industry from an enterprise vantage.Q1: What’s your experience in launching a co-lending program at TruCap?&nbsp;A: I started my journey with TruCap in 2019, right about the time when <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/blog/focus-rise-of-co-lending-model/">co-lending</a> was gradually gaining attention from multiple stakeholders in the ecosystem. We started co-lending programs in June 2020. Today, it covers 22% of our entire book. At TruCap, we generally carry out two types of co-lending: Upstream and Downstream. When we partner with another NBFC, it’s called a downstream partnership, where we provide our balance sheet, and the partner NBFC serves as a Loan Service Provider (LSP). When we get into a co-lending agreement with a Bank, it’s called an upstream partnership, where the Bank provides the balance sheet, and we serve as their LSP. In both types of partnerships, we agree upon a hybrid product (with/without tweaks) that serves the borrowers efficiently. Over the years, we have built a remarkable co-lending journey with leading public/private sector banks and NBFCs. Between June 2020 and March 2022, we signed up with 17 partners and built a 200-crore book with the support of our LOS &amp; LMS.Q2: What setbacks did you encounter in launching a co-lending program?A: The primary impediment to any co-lending program is how well both lending partners’ systems and processes can work. It’s obvious! Any co-lender would contemplate what goes into their partner’s loan cycle and how their organization can understand and accommodate that loan cycle. Well… I would say finding a middle ground to adapt and accept each other’s processes and tech is easier in a downstream partnership. Because as an enterprise, we partner with smaller NBFCs who are driven by the ethos of sustainable growth by catering to underserved borrowers to keep them afloat in the business. Their readiness to amend their tech to align themselves to the processes and technology of the co-lender is always high.Once the product integration is sorted, the next stumbling block is the integration of processes and technology. Whether you want a bulk upload via SFTP, or manual inputs vary from partner to partner and depends on the tech-readiness of the partner and stage of business at which technology can truly impact sustainable scaling to play a role of an enabler.“Using First Principles in the brainstorming sessions with a strong bias toward action and avoid paralysis by analysis – Vishal Miglani.”Q3: Can you elaborate on the practical challenges in scaling a co-lending program and how did you overcome them?A: The biggest challenge today the industry is facing is handling <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/loan-management-system/">loan management system</a> and collections. Not all customer journeys are happy and smooth. Some customers do not pay on time; some miss an EMI or two; some make a part payment; some pay in advance, and others might not pay at all. We can resolve this issue in one of the following ways: Either the partner NBFC should adapt the system logic of the NBFC that provides the balance sheet or vice versa. So, what happens here is both parties sit down for a mutual discussion to decide. And this is where major disconnect/recon happens in any co-lending relationship.For example, let’s consider the ICP logic. Each NBFC has a different rule book for delayed payments, penal charges, etc. Some NBFCs allow customers to pay their EMI beyond the due date without any penal fees, while others apply penal charges from day one. Depending on the type of arrangement we sign up, the loan management systems must be aligned and integrated to minimize and address the complexities to effectively gauge risk.Q4: How do you handle collections?A: When it comes to a downstream partnership, we maintain a mirror image of the partner’s book in real-time. Say I have a demand for 1,000 customer repayments. The partner NBFC meets the demand and keeps the books. Of these, 5 or 6 customers may miss repayments, and we tag these customers in real-time as the partner NBFC puts a tab on them. Only when we do this in real time risks can be managed effectively. Waiting for a partner to report after the customer becomes an NPA could make the situation dire. This is where tech support comes into play.Q5: You have executed several successful partnerships. What is your secret sauce in selecting your co-lending partners?A: As highlighted earlier, we work with sustainable and growth-oriented stakeholders in the co-lending ecosystem. We have invested substantially to create an infrastructure that allows for ease of business while making credit accessible and affordable for the underserved MSMEs. Our SOPs guide us in selecting co-lending partner(s) whose vision is aligned to ours. However, it is essential to conduct specific due diligence to ensure a successful partnership. At TruCap, we have a set of criteria, and we carry out extensive due diligence, including financial due diligence, product due diligence, team due diligence, branch network spread, ability to collect, geography, and more.Further, we only partner with NBFCs that maintain a similar ecosystem of products or in the line of products we offer. For instance, we are a <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/newsletter/fintalk-55/">MSME</a> business loan company, so we will do a downstream partnership with an NBFC that is into business loans, not those offering personal loans. The ethos of what we want to do is standard, and we don’t divert from it.Q6: In the line of the previous question, what does a typical P&amp;L discussion entail in a partnership?A: I firmly believe in using First Principles in brainstorming sessions with a strong bias toward action; avoid paralysis by analysis. We have been quite clear that these partnerships need critical levers of business and metrics to be addressed appropriately at the beginning of the association to avoid post integration pangs and duplication of efforts. We strictly adhere to the Discuss—Implement—Understand method for going live with a digital lending program. In line with this approach, we built standardized SoPs to partner with stakeholders. We follow those SoPs for any partner onboarding, from log-in settings to disbursements to collections and thereafter. The SoPs details multiple scenarios and how to handle them effectively and efficiently. But one needs to bear in mind that these SoPs and processes have been established and refined through our learnings over the years. The SoPs are dynamic and subject to periodic updates in line with market developments.Q7: What’s the role of tech in this journey?A: Technology, of course, is doing its bit as a business enabler playing a pivotal role in making credit accessible. The co-lending relationships and levers driving the business remain unchanged, whether the relationship is upstream or downstream co-lending. Hence, tech accounts for a significant role in enabling business objectives through co-lending relationships. It enables transparency and helps the parties understand customer challenges in real time to address ground challenges more effectively.But with time, we are also beginning to understand its limitations and the risks associated with it. As there are no one-size solutions, there are certain situations that still require manual invention.Q8: Where do you see co-lending’s future?A: Today, the co-lending industry is close to 25-30K crore book across India, perhaps even more. With more and more FIs joining the bandwagon, the growth potential is high.Wrapping up this insightful session, Mr. Vishal Miglani’s expertise paints a promising picture for the future of co-lending.With its immense growth potential and increasing adoption across financial institutions, co-lending is poised to play a significant role in shaping the financial landscape in India.Looking for a co-lending solution designed for your business?<a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/contact-us/">Schedule a demo</a> with us today and discover how our co-lending platform can meet your needs.<h3 class="heading-node" id="f1egncsnb" style="text-align: justify">About Vishal Miglani</h3>Mr. Vishal Miglani is one of the key leaders driving TruCap towards excellence.

Ease of Configuration</h2>As demand for agile financial solutions grows, Loan Management System and Loan Origination System empower lenders to swiftly set up and launch services, significantly reducing time-to-market.By automating critical stages such as application submission, credit evaluation, and decision-making, these platforms reduce manual errors and accelerate the overall loan processing cycle. Moreover, they allow lenders to customize their operations according to specific business requirements without heavy reliance on technical teams.This flexibility enhances the ability to launch new loan products quickly, addressing credit gaps and aligning services with customer preferences. Ultimately, these adaptable platforms ensure seamless integration into the lender's operational model, improving customer satisfaction and helping lenders remain competitive and responsive in an ever-evolving market.<h2 class="heading-node" id="7gtbescbt" style="text-align: justify">2. Scalability</h2>A robust digital lending platform must accommodate a wide range of scenarios that can occur throughout the lending process, such as managing events like foreclosure, supporting different loan disbursement structures, staggered disbursements, etc.If a platform lacks these essential capabilities, it risks inefficiencies, manual interventions, and potential errors. A truly scalable Loan Management System should offer a comprehensive range of loan servicing options, allowing lenders to efficiently manage diverse loan products without redundancy or system limitations. This completeness enables businesses to scale their operations smoothly and adapt to market demands without compromising on service quality.<h2 class="heading-node" id="7zjmz2afe" style="text-align: justify">3. Compatibility with Other Systems</h2>Lenders typically rely on a range of tools, such as CRM systems, accounting software, and lead sourcing channels. However, when these systems fail to communicate effectively, it can lead to data inconsistencies, inefficiencies, and an increased risk of errors.Ensuring compatibility with other software is essential for driving operational efficiency and delivering a unified lending experience. A well-integrated Loan Origination System enables lenders to access consistent, accurate insights across their operations, minimizing errors and enhancing decision-making.For digital lending platforms to be truly effective, they must integrate seamlessly with existing systems, such as Loan Origination System and Loan Management System, to ensure smooth data flow.<h2 class="heading-node" id="9a115dazl" style="text-align: justify">4. Compliance</h2>In today’s fast-evolving regulatory landscape, with the RBI continuously updating its framework to address new challenges in lending, staying compliant is more important than ever. Hence, it is crucial for digital lending platforms to be flexible and compliant.A stable Loan Management System should have the capability to seamlessly incorporate ongoing regulatory changes without requiring frequent overhauls or complete process revisions. This adaptability ensures that lenders remain compliant with minimal disruption to their operations, reducing the need for repeated adjustments.A robust digital lending platform should be designed to accommodate dynamic regulatory shifts, offering the flexibility to integrate these updates effortlessly and ensuring long-term operational stability.<h2 class="heading-node" id="p01b1450y" style="text-align: justify">5. Innovative Operating Models Driving Financial Inclusion</h2>With the rise of new-to-credit customers, millennials, and priority sector borrowers, there's a growing need for innovative lending models to drive financial inclusion. Co-lending platforms, for instance, enable multiple lenders to pool their resources. This allows for the provision of customized loans tailored to the specific needs of borrowers. Furthermore, aggregator partnerships and peer-to-peer (P2P) lending platforms are transforming digital lending by streamlining processes and diversifying lending options, all while enhancing customer satisfaction through value-added services.These innovative operating models are essential for advancing financial inclusion. Digital lenders should seek Loan Origination and Loan Management systems designed to support modern lending use cases, helping them maximize revenue opportunities while prioritizing financial inclusivity. Advanced Loan Origination and Management Systems enable lenders to assess creditworthiness using alternative data sources—such as utility bills and mobile usage—thereby expanding financial access to underserved individuals and businesses. Additionally, these systems allow lenders to efficiently manage high volumes of loans, reducing operational costs through automation and supporting new-age lending models that foster sustainable financial inclusion.<h2 class="heading-node" id="s0j4k3kiw" style="text-align: justify">The Way Ahead</h2>Currently, digital lending is poised for significant advancements, focusing on speed, accessibility, and customer-centric experiences. Trends like automated decisioning, no-code platforms, and mobile lending solutions are driving operational efficiency and flexibility. Meanwhile, the use of alternative credit data and enhanced cybersecurity measures ensure broader access to loans while safeguarding sensitive information. As the industry continues to evolve, these trends underscore the importance of embracing technology to stay ahead in a rapidly changing financial landscape.To learn more about our products and how they can support your digital lending needs;<a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/contact-us/?activeKey=1">Schedule a demo</a> today.<a class="link fui-Link ___1idfs5o f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1hu3pq6 f11qmguv f19f4twv f1tyq0we f1g0x7ka fhxju0i f1qch9an f1cnd47f fqv5qza f1vmzxwi f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh ftqa4ok f2hkw1w fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1h8hb77 f1x7u7e9 f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn" href="https://m2pfintech.com/newsletter/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Subscribe</a>&nbsp;to our newsletter and get the latest fintech news, views, and insights, directly to your inbox.Follow us on&nbsp;<a class="link fui-Link ___1idfs5o f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1hu3pq6 f11qmguv f19f4twv f1tyq0we f1g0x7ka fhxju0i f1qch9an f1cnd47f fqv5qza f1vmzxwi f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh ftqa4ok f2hkw1w fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1h8hb77 f1x7u7e9 f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn" href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/m2pfintech/mycompany/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LinkedIn</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a class="link fui-Link ___1idfs5o f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1hu3pq6 f11qmguv f19f4twv f1tyq0we f1g0x7ka fhxju0i f1qch9an f1cnd47f fqv5qza f1vmzxwi f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh ftqa4ok f2hkw1w fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1h8hb77 f1x7u7e9 f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn" href="https://twitter.com/m2pfintech" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Twitter</a>&nbsp;for insightful fintech bytes curated for curious minds like you.

Factors Propelling Digital Lending to New Heights

<img src="https://m2p-website-file.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/m2p-website-file/marketing-cms/m2p-blog/2024/11/1.-Blog-Banner-2-Features-for-an-Effective-Loan-Origination-System_A-01-4.webp" alt="M2P Fintech" title="" width="100%" height="253">Today's borrowers seek a seamless digital experience with quicker approval and loan processing times when choosing a lender. The right features in a robust loan origination software can significantly transform the process.With a straight-through process (STP)-based Loan Origination System (LOS), lenders can not only improve the customer experience but also reduce the customer onboarding TAT significantly. Individual lender needs may vary in the top features of loan origination software, but we should prioritize certain must-have features.In this blog post, we will explore the essential features of loan origination systems that every lender must have. First, let's see what the Loan Origination System (LOS) is.<h2 class="heading-node" id="1ti242qg7" style="text-align: left">What is a Loan Origination System?</h2>A <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/loan-origination-system/">loan origination system</a> is a software solution that automates the entire loan process for lenders, right from lead generation and customer onboarding to credit assessment and transfer to the loan management system.Prior to the introduction of cloud-based loan origination systems, most lenders depended on legacy solutions to onboard borrowers, which significantly contributed to higher loss of leads and, thereby, revenue.On the other hand, the loan origination systems of today are mostly cloud-based and come equipped with a full suite of automations and integrations, which not only allows the lender to take better control of the entire loan origination process but also increases their overall efficiency and profitability.To ensure a seamless and efficient <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/blog/digital-lending-open-credit-enablement-network/">lending</a> process, lenders must consider essential features in their loan origination software.Here are the top five features every lender should consider in a modern loan origination system (LOS) to streamline operations and boost customer satisfaction.<img src="https://m2p-website-file.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/m2p-website-file/marketing-cms/m2p-blog/2024/11/1.-Blog-Banner-2-Features-for-an-Effective-Loan-Origination-System_A-04-3.webp" alt="M2P Fintech" title="" id="efbtq652j" width="100%" height="317"><h3 class="heading-node" id="57yfiv5qm" style="text-align: left">Ease of Use</h3>Ease of use is a key feature of the loan origination system stemming from its low-code, workflow-driven platform. This allows lenders to tailor every aspect of the loan origination process to meet their specific needs. Here’s how it enhances <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/blog/5-key-features-to-elevate-lending-operations/">lending operations</a>:<ul class="list-node" id="re116bu6q"><li>Improved User Experience: A user-friendly interface minimizes confusion, allowing users to navigate the system more easily and reducing the chances of making mistakes.</li><li>Reduced Errors: User-friendly systems often employ standardized templates and dropdown menus, which promote consistent data entry and minimize variations that can lead to errors.</li></ul>Therefore, ease of use is not just convenience; it's a competitive advantage that leads to higher operational efficiency and a faster go-to-market.<h3 class="heading-node" id="3n6038ifv" style="text-align: left">Security &amp; Confidentiality</h3>Lenders handle vast amounts of personal and confidential information, making robust security measures essential to protect against data breaches, fraud, and unauthorized access.Irrespective of the provider you choose, the loan origination system should be able to distinguish and effectively control access between granted, moderated, and revoked files with ease.Here are the security protocols that should be in place for new-age lenders:<ul class="list-node" id="64tf9hsfu"><li>Data Protection: Advanced encryption and multi-factor authentication safeguard borrower information, ensuring that sensitive data remains secure.</li><li>Regulatory Compliance: Helps lenders stay compliant with regulations such as GDPR, PCI DSS, and other financial industry standards, reducing the risk of legal penalties.</li><li>Risk Mitigation: Strong security protocols help prevent unauthorized access, data leaks, and potential fraud, protecting the institution’s reputation and customer trust.</li></ul>Confidentiality Assurance: By enforcing strict access controls, only authorized personnel can view or modify sensitive information, minimizing the risk of insider threats or accidental data exposure.<h3 class="heading-node" id="6u3in0lfi" style="text-align: left">Holistic <a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/blog/api-the-power-that-drives-new-age-banking-ecosystems/">APIs</a> &amp; Integrations</h3>The ability to integrate smoothly with third-party applications enables lenders to streamline the flow of information from various systems into a unified Loan Origination System.<a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/blog/the-world-of-apis-how-they-power-fintech/">Holistic APIs</a> allow lenders to connect with credit bureaus, identity verification services, and other essential tools that streamline the loan process.This integration ensures that all necessary data is readily available for decision-making, reducing manual entry errors and speeding up approvals. Here’s how they benefit from lending operations:<ul class="list-node" id="nl8ceorz1"><li>Streamlined data flow: APIs allows smooth data exchange between credit bureaus, KYC systems, accounting software, and other platforms, reducing manual entry and errors.</li><li>Faster decision-making: Automated data sharing speeds up credit checks, approvals, and underwriting processes.</li><li>Operational efficiency: Integrations with external services simplify workflows, reducing bottlenecks and boosting productivity.</li><li>Scalability: Easily connect to new systems as the business grows without disrupting operations.</li><li>Improved customer experience: Faster, integrated processes lead to quicker loan approvals and more seamless borrower experience.</li></ul><h3 class="heading-node" id="tqk6svbqe" style="text-align: left">Domain Expertise</h3>Finally, a modern LOS should have built-in domain expertise specific to the lending industry. The simple reason behind this is that, in contrast to other industries where small errors might not accumulate severe financial losses, in the lending industry, even a minor flaw in the software might tarnish reputation among borrowers and result in severe financial loss. It also provides lenders with<ul class="list-node" id="jnivmogv0"><li>Customized solutions: Offers customized workflows and best practices, boosting operational efficiency.</li><li>Enhanced compliance management: By integrating compliance checks seamlessly, it reduces the risk of errors and regulatory penalties in a heavily regulated environment.</li><li>Accurate risk assessment: Understanding different loan products allows for better evaluation of borrower profiles, facilitating appropriate lending limits.</li><li>Streamlined processes: Automation of various lending processes, from application to underwriting, reduces approval times and enhances customer experience.</li></ul><h3 class="heading-node" id="asmk0k8a1" style="text-align: left">SaaS &amp; Future-Proof Technology</h3>Adopting the Software as a Service (SaaS) model provides flexibility and scalability that traditional systems cannot match. A cloud-based LOS allows lenders to access and use the software anytime, anywhere, irrespective of the device they operate. Modern loan origination systems, fully hosted on the cloud, ensure faster loan servicing and future-ready technology.This keeps their operations current with industry trends and regulatory changes, allowing them to adapt quickly without significant investment in new infrastructure.Investing in a modern Loan Origination System equipped with these five must-have features is essential for any lender to stay competitive in a fast-paced market.Ready to optimize your lending process?<a class="link" href="https://m2pfintech.com/contact-us/">Schedule a demo</a>&nbsp;to know how our modern Loan Origination Systems can drive measurable improvements in your lending workflow.<a class="link fui-Link ___1idfs5o f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1hu3pq6 f11qmguv f19f4twv f1tyq0we f1g0x7ka fhxju0i f1qch9an f1cnd47f fqv5qza f1vmzxwi f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh ftqa4ok f2hkw1w fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1h8hb77 f1x7u7e9 f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn" href="https://m2pfintech.com/newsletter/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Subscribe</a>&nbsp;to our newsletter and get the latest fintech news, views, and insights, directly to your inbox.Follow us on&nbsp;<a class="link fui-Link ___1idfs5o f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1hu3pq6 f11qmguv f19f4twv f1tyq0we f1g0x7ka fhxju0i f1qch9an f1cnd47f fqv5qza f1vmzxwi f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh ftqa4ok f2hkw1w fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1h8hb77 f1x7u7e9 f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn" href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/m2pfintech/mycompany/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">LinkedIn</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a class="link fui-Link ___1idfs5o f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1hu3pq6 f11qmguv f19f4twv f1tyq0we f1g0x7ka fhxju0i f1qch9an f1cnd47f fqv5qza f1vmzxwi f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh ftqa4ok f2hkw1w fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1h8hb77 f1x7u7e9 f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn" href="https://twitter.com/m2pfintech" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Twitter</a>&nbsp;for insightful fintech bytes curated for curious minds like you.
