Digital Lending is a trending practice where consumers can seamlessly secure a loan online with minimum paperwork required. The process of submitting documents, authentications, and disbursement of the loan through channels available to end users/consumers, such as mobile or internet banking platforms. Digital Lending can offer a plethora of market opportunities to various traditional lenders (banks), NBFCs, and innovative start-ups.

Traditional banks are usually less reluctant to disburse loans to individuals who do not have a good credit score and individual small businesses that do not have proper collateral; this is a scenario in which digital lenders come to the rescue. The new-age digital lending players have showcased an ability to expand their customer base by capitalizing on the needs of the under-banked population and solving the challenges retail customers and MSMEs face in accessing formal credit.

Digital lenders can play a critical role in the post-COVID era due to their capabilities to facilitate seamless, remote onboarding and digital document verification. Companies must sharpen their product portfolio hinged on a robust digital framework.

The following are 5 Lending FinTech companies to watch out for in 2022:
