MOUs and Agreement
Fintech company PayNearby on Monday announced its tie-up with Grameen Foundation for Social Impact (GFSI), a non-profit to uplift underserved communities, to upskill 1.5 lakh business correspondents (BC) in rural areas. The BCs will provide digital and financial services beyond cash-in/cash-out to the underserved and tech-shy last-mile population, PayNearby said. The collaboration will launch a two-year pan-India project ‘Scaling Agent Viability and Quality in India’ supported by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) to also enlist 15,000 women BCs through the required skills, knowledge and support.
