“Jio Financial Services is positioned uniquely to capture the growth opportunities in financial services sector and play a crucial role in transforming the landscape of digital finance in India,” chairman Mukesh Ambani said in a message to shareholders.
A listing date for Jio Financial Services is expected to be announced at Reliance’s forthcoming annual general meeting. Ambani said Jio Financial Services wants to provide simple, affordable and innovative digital first solutions. “Jio Financial Services along with its subsidiaries will leverage technological capabilities of Reliance and digitally deliver financial services, democratising access to financial services offerings for Indian citizens,” he said.
Last month, Jio Financial Services and US-based BlackRock announced they would form a 50:50 joint venture to launch asset management services in India.
