Open Finance enables secure, user-consented sharing of financial data across institutions, fostering transparency, better decision-making, and personalized financial services. It is an evolution of Open Banking, expanding the scope beyond banks to include a broader range of financial data sources such as insurance, investments, pensions, and more. 

At the heart of India’s Open Finance ecosystem is the Account Aggregator (AA) framework, a ground-breaking initiative enabling individuals to securely access and share their financial data with their consent. Built on principles of data privacy and empowerment, the AA network ensures seamless, transparent data exchange between institutions, empowering users to make informed financial decisions. 

Sahamati, a non-profit industry alliance, has played a pivotal role in driving the adoption and awareness of the AA framework in India, fostering trust and collaboration between stakeholders in the ecosystem.
