In a conversation with Banking Frontiers, Brijesh Samantaray, the Co-Founder of Propelld , an IAN Group (formerly Indian Angel Network) portfolio company, talked about the current trends in education loans and how the company is leveraging technology to drive debt collection and manage fraud. Discussing Propelld's digital solutions for education loans, Brijesh said, "In addition to loan origination and management, Propelld has implemented a robust digital framework for collections and fraud management. This framework is designed to ensure high security and compliance with regulatory standards. Propelld’s distribution engine pre-qualifies applications before they are submitted to lenders, minimising rejection rates by ensuring that all necessary checks are completed upfront. This proactive approach reduces the risk of loan defaults and ensures that borrowers are able to meet their repayment obligations."
