Listen to @VaanathiM as she shares our exciting partnership with @VisaCEMEA , aimed at expediting the launch of fintech programs.

Before @mu2ayya @prabranga and I founded @m2pfintech , and even before #fintech became a buzzword, the process of launching a financial or payment product with a bank typically took 6 Qtrs, despite best intentions.

Our relentless focus to simplifying approval processes at banks and streamlining operations, we managed to reduce this to 6 months by 2015/16. Following the surge of fintech innovations post-demonetization, we further optimized and as a result, over the past few years, we've seen 10's if not 100's of fintech products go live in six weeks.

Drawing from our decade-long experience of having solved for scale, complexity, and the preemptive regulatory climate in India, we've attempted to cater to bank - fintech partnerships, this doesn't stop just at technology but the entire gamut of what goes behind the scenes, like how will banks manage franchise risk or operational aspects as examples.

All our learnings have been brought to fore in our partnership with Visa to roll out VRTL in CEMEA, a program that has pushed the envelope and has allowed fintech in the CEMEA region to launch programs in just six days.

As they say in the technology world, transitioning from four nines to five nines availability (99.99% to 99.999%) requires an immense amount of effort.
our own four 6's (6Q > 6M > 6W > 6D) to five 6's hopefully gets done rather swiftly. Tune in to this insightful podcast to learn more about our journey and partnership with Visa in the CEMEA region.
