In a groundbreaking collaboration set to transform the financial landscape of rural Rajasthan, India Post Payments Bank (IPPB) and Hindustan Zinc Limited have joined forces to lead inclusive financial solutions. This partnership seeks to bring about a significant change in the lives of community beneficiaries located in and around Hindustan Zinc's operational areas. The formalization of the memorandum of understanding (MoU) between IPPB and HZL was carried out by Gursharan Rai Bansal, Chief Sales & Marketing Officer of IPPB, and Arun Misra, CEO of Hindustan Zinc.

"Partnering with Hindustan Zinc to extend financial inclusion services to its beneficiaries allows IPPB to enter the realm of serving populations benefiting from the corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives of leading corporations in India. This collaboration with HZL represents a significant milestone for us in expanding our scope of doorstep banking service delivery to unserved and underserved individuals in the country", expressed Bansal.

During the event, HZL's CEO Arun Misra commented, "This transformative partnership with India Post Payments Bank underscores our commitment to empowering communities. By combining our strengths with IPPB, we seek to redefine financial inclusion and provide our community beneficiaries with access to advanced financial services. This collaboration signifies our dedication to making a meaningful impact on lives, fostering economic resilience, and driving positive change in the communities we serve".

IPPB's primary services focus on promoting financial inclusion by facilitating the opening of bank accounts, offering access to pension products, and providing options for long-term savings and investment schemes. Furthermore, these services play a pivotal role in supporting and empowering over 3.5 lakh beneficiaries, including self-help group women, farmers, and youth, enabling them to serve as Individual Business Correspondents for various IPPB services. Additionally, IPPB actively advocates for government social welfare schemes through its banking channels and assists beneficiaries in accessing income-generating loans through collaborations with IPPB.
