What is the Company solving?

- Today, an individual faces the problem of managing her/his finances optimally. An individual today has two options, either to be highly educated about personal finances and opt for the DIY mode or approach distributors who are there to make a product sale and not advise an individual holistically.

- As much as every piece about personal finance is interrelated, the current solutions are pretty ad-hoc and don't do the job optimally for the individual.

- At The Financialist, we are solving this problem statement for Indians and are a one stop solution to manage their finances holistically in the most unbiased manner.
