Dear reader,
Greetings for the day!
For a long time, AK & Partners has been working consistently on the AKP Banking & Finance Digest through which we share weekly regulatory updates of RBI and other financial regulatory bodies of South Asian countries such as Bangladesh, Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal and Sri Lanka. Our intent behind sharing the regulatory updates has been to create awareness towards regulatory frameworks and ease of access for our readers to find banking and finance updates in one place with one click. So far, we have been sharing the same with our readers through LinkedIn and our firm’s website.
After receiving an immensely positive response to our banking and finance digest, we have decided to notch it up a little bit more and spread the reach of banking regulation updates.
We are now excited to present to you, the AKP Banking & Finance Digest Newsletter reaching straight to you in your mailboxes.
We certainly hope that our readers would recognise the efforts that go behind preparing AKP Banking & Finance Digest & find our newsletter interesting!
