Ensuring Financial Inclusion of Women

When Asaan Digital Account was being designed, one of the most important reasons to develop this service was to encourage women to get hassle-free access to financial services from the comfort of their homes. Asaan Digital Accounts are simple and convenient through which women can also avail a number of banking services and enjoy financial freedom.
