India’s UCO Bank has joined forces with wealth-tech startup Fisdom to roll out wealth management products and services for its customers.

The Indian public sector lender will leverage the collaboration with Fisdom to facilitate large-scale facilitation and distribution of all mutual fund schemes through its network of over 3,000 branches and all digital platforms.

With this partnership, the bank aims to increase its customer value proposition by making wealth management services accessible.

Initially, the bank will offer mutual funds through its mBanking Plus App.

The customers can use the app to access and invest in funds, view relevant details, track fund performance in real-time and redeem their investments when required.

UCO Bank executive director Ishraq Khan remarked that the partnership is in line with the bank’s mission to offer all financial products and services in an affordable manner while maintaining transparency.
