Annual Report / 02 FROM A RICH LEGACY, TO A SMARTER AND BRIGHTER FUTURE OUR TRANSITION: Our journey in the financial services business began in the late 2000s with the set up of Future Financial services - a Microfinance company with operations in Andhra Pradesh, and Disha Microfin - a Microfinance company with operations in Gujarat. Since then, we have grown from strength to strength, matured our operations, faced and overcame difficult circumstances and emerged more resilient. During the last financial year, we have expanded from a monoline product, offering a product suite consisting of various Credit, Savings, Payments and other products, grown our footprint across 10 states and 1 union territory and truly transformed as a Small Finance Bank. Blessed with a rich legacy, we are making rapid strides towards a brighter, smarter future.
