Overview of India?s BFSI Industry

The banking & financial system of the country plays a substantial role in promoting the long-term growth of the economy. The major segments of the industry are banking, insurance and mutual funds.

Based on the expected growth in the Banking and Financial Services Industry (BFSI), it is expected that about 8.4 million people would be employed in this industry. The incremental human resource requirement between 2008 and 2022 is expected to be about 4.2 million.

The majority of the incremental requirement is in the financial intermediary segment which is primarily driven by planned development, such as JnNURM, of cities and towns where the financial services penetration is low.
