Account Aggregator

A financial data-sharing system called Account Aggregator (AA) was unveiled


last year in India, revolutionizing investing and credit by giving consumers
more control over their financial records and expanding the pool of potential
customers for lenders.

So, what are Account Aggregators?


AAs (Account Aggregators) are RBI-regulated entities that allow individuals
(with NBFC-AA licenses) to securely and digitally access information from one
financial institution they have an account with to any other regulated financial
institution in the AA network. The individual's financial data cannot be shared
without their consent. With AA, you can use this data to access a wide range of
financial services, whether they are for your business or personal use.

Who are the main parties in AA?


The key components of the AA ecosystem are the Account Aggregator (AA),
the Financial Information Provider (FIP), and the Financial Information User
(FIU) who collaborate to simplify the data sharing process.
A Financial Information Provider (FIP) has all the financial data which is to be
used.
Account Aggregators (AA) are the consent managers that deliver your data
with your consent.
Financial Information Users (FIU) are the entities that provide products or
services.

How account aggregators will revolutionize the


personal finance of people?
Indian consumers face many financial hassles today -- sharing bank statements
that have been physically signed, notarizing and stamping documents, or having
to share your username and password when sharing your financial history.
Through an account aggregator network, all these barriers will be replaced with
a simple, mobile-based, secure, and simple process to access and share digital
data. As a result, new types of financial services, such as loans, will be
available. The AA mechanism will become immensely successful if all financial
services providers, government entities such as Income Tax and GST, and other
businesses are on board. It mainly helps in
 Fraud Reduction
 Less physical interactions
 Less Turnaround Time and
 Improved Financial Understanding

Using the AA framework will greatly increase the competitiveness of small


businesses that are seeking loans to upgrade their businesses. Like the UPI,
account aggregators will revolutionize the Indian financial ecosystem for
years to come, with the ultimate beneficiary being the end user.
