Fintech India Report 2017

PwC and Startupbootcamp are stationed at the heart of the FinTech ecosystem in India. Startupbootcamp scouts for and supports promising, early-stage startups in the country, while PwC advises a wide-range of corporate and institutional clients on leading FinTech issues. For its first program in India, Startupbootcamp FinTech analysed more than 1000 startups from across the world. Through ‘FastTrack events’ / roadshows in 18 cities, we were also able to gain valuable insights that helped us better understand the FinTech landscape as it stands today. On the other hand, PwC consults clients of all levels in BFSI - from large Financial Service Organisations to FinTech companies. This combined vantage point provides a unique view of the emerging trends in the FinTech space, particularly in India. This report aims to provide key insights into the evolution of the FinTech sector in India by utilizing PwC’s intelligence and experience in this area as well as insights from Startupbootcamp’s application data from its first program in India.
