CRIF India Launches Kolkata Chapter of 'Credit Goes to HER' to Support Women in Credit
CRIF India has launched the first regional chapter of 'Credit Goes to HER' in Kolkata, West Bengal, aiming to enhance women's leadership and participation in the credit ecosystem. The initiative, started in March 2024, seeks to build a community of women professionals influencing credit policies and access. This follows notable growth in women-led business loans and increased female borrowers nationally. Kolkata was chosen due to Eastern India's strong credit growth, with West Bengal's retail credit market showing significant year-on-year increases.
