Why FinTech at MABS?
FinTech today is more than a specialization—it is the engine reshaping India’s financial economy. From UPI and digital lending to blockchain identities and AI-driven credit models, the sector demands leaders who understand technology, finance, regulation, data, and user behaviour together.
At MABS, this specialization—powered by Zell’s academic structure and Paytm’s industry expertise—immerses you in real financial technologies and product workflows used across banks, NBFCs, startups, and digital commerce platforms.
A typical class might begin with a real challenge:
A UPI failure case
A digital lending risk spike
Behavioural insights from payments data
A blockchain-based identity puzzle
A regulatory guideline from RBI
A product issue sourced from Paytm
You evaluate the situation through the lens of data, market strategy, compliance, product design, customer trust, and scalability, then prototype a feasible industry-ready solution.
At MABS, FinTech is not a subject—it’s a live business lab.
