In a significant development for India's financial services, Appreciate has executed the first Rs. 100 mutual fund transaction via the Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) Network. This marks a pivotal step in making investment products more accessible across diverse regions in India.
Appreciate aims to democratize investment opportunities, particularly targeting areas underrepresented in traditional finance by enabling small-ticket investments. The company's collaboration with Nippon India AMC marks the first of many anticipated partnerships to foster financial inclusion.
The ONDC Network, originally established to support e-commerce, is now extending its reach into financial services, further diversifying into mutual funds and planning to include insurance soon. This expansion underscores a broader mission to make financial products as accessible as e-commerce items for India's population.
