Potential

​India’s financial system is seeing significant disruption. On the one hand there is deep stress in the public banking system and on the other there is a new set of customers from the new economy that are fast growing, more global in their thinking and run by first generation entrepreneurs rather than families. Avendus is in a good position to leverage the opportunities this has created.
