Northern Arc Capital, a leading Indian financial services firm, has successfully raised $75 million in debt funding from the Dutch development bank FMO. This strategic infusion of capital aims to bolster Northern Arc's mission of enhancing financial inclusion and providing access to credit for underserved segments across India.

The funding will be instrumental in scaling Northern Arc's operations, improving credit penetration, and fostering sustainable development in India's financial ecosystem.

The infusion of funds from FMO will further enhance the firm's ability to leverage technology and data analytics to deliver efficient and inclusive financial services.

As Northern Arc continues to expand its reach and impact, the partnership with FMO represents a significant milestone in its journey towards financial empowerment and inclusion. This collaboration is expected to catalyse further investments and partnerships, reinforcing the firm's role as a key player in India's financial inclusion landscape.
