Before founding Syntellect, individually, we were leading teams of finance experts, strategizing policies for banks, heading lending risk and taking crucial decisions for various reputed organizations. Working closely with the consumers, we witnessed the economic dis-balance selective lending was creating. On the same hand, we resonated with the limitations of lenders to serve these thin-file, informal sector. Addressing that discrimination became our priority. We knew that a sustainable approach to achieve financial inclusion is by designing methods to accurately quantify risk. We collaborated with technology pioneers to build a disruptive system called RightProfileTM. Through RightProfileTM, we have and continue to contribute towards making financial inclusion a reality.
