Bridging the Gap: How German FinTechs Can Thrive with Indian Innovation

Overcoming Challenges in FinTech

A growing German FinTech startup—specializing in SME lending and digital wallets—faced two significant roadblocks:

• Engineering Bottleneck: Scaling development in Berlin was both expensive and slow.

• Compliance Pressure: Building internal capacities for AML/KYC and regulatory reporting was costly and resource-intensive.

  
  

They needed a solution that could expand technical capacity, streamline regulation-based operations, and reduce operational costs—without compromising on security or quality.
