Karnataka Vikas Grameena Bank (KVGB) has signed a memorandum of understanding with 'Jai Kisan' (a rural-focused fintech platform of Greenizon Agritech Consultancy Pvt Ltd) to expand access to financial services to individuals and businesses in Karnataka, including farmer and non-farmer entrepreneurs.
A press release said that P Gopikrishna, Chairman of KVGB, and Arjun Ahluwalia, founder and CEO of Jai Kisan, signed the MoU in Dharwad.
Gopikrishna said that the bank intends to extend its services to small and micro enterprises (SME), joint liability groups (JLG), self-help groups (SHG), and to farmers through Kisan Credit Card (KCC) and credit for farm mechanisation efforts through its partnership with Jai Kisan.
