“Collaboration is the key to address the challenges we face, and no single institution, organization or sector can address them alone. The government, regulatory bodies, industry associations and civil society, all need to work together on policy formulation, sharing best practices and developing innovative solutions to tackle the common challenges faced by us,” said Shri Ajay Seth, Secretary, Department of Economic Affairs (DEA), Ministry of Finance, Government of India, while delivering the keynote address at the Valedictory Session of the CII Financing 3.0 Summit held today in Mumbai. He further mentioned that access to banking channels for the hitherto financially excluded population helped in promoting financial inclusion in a big way. Jan Dhan Yojana has resulted in the creation of more than 53 crore bank accounts today. This number, perhaps, would be the same as the population of entire Europe. What we have been able to do in a period of 7-8 years, in a normal course, would have taken us 15 years. The session was attended by: · Sanjiv Bajaj, Past President, CII and Chairman & Managing Director, Bajaj Finserv Limited · Chandrajit Banerjee, Director General, CII #CIIFinancingSummit #FinancialInclusion
