Shivalik Small Finance Bank (SSFB), a small finance bank transitioning from an urban cooperative bank, has raised Rs 100 crore in equity capital. The funding round was led by SMBC Asia Rising Fund- Japan, the corporate venture capital arm of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (SMBC), with additional participation from existing investors, Accel, Quona Capital, Lightspeed, and Sorin Investments.

Shivalik offers a full suite of retail and MSME-focused products, including savings accounts, fixed deposits, gold loans, overdrafts, and digital payments. It has also partnered with major insurance providers like Bajaj Allianz, Go Digit, Kotak Life, LIC, and New India Assurance to offer integrated financial solutions to its growing base of customers.
