About the AA Ecosystem

The Account Aggregator (AA) framework is a digital public infrastructure for consent-based financial data sharing in the country. The ecosystem implementing the framework empowers customers with agency, control, and the ability to access, manage, share, and use their financial data across banking, securities, insurance, pension, and taxation. This “data empowerment” paradigm empowers customers to access financial products and services at better terms.
  • The AA ecosystem is India’s implementation of Open Finance and arguably one of the fastest-growing and largest regimes in the world.
  • Since its public launch in September 2021, the ecosystem marked 103 million cumulative successful consents fulfilled in August 2024.
  • The AA ecosystem has a diverse, one-of-its-kind participant mix of financial institutions across 20+ license types and five regulators.
  • More than 2.1 billion financial accounts have the facility to share data with explicit, informed consent operationalized by the ecosystem.
  • The ecosystem has facilitated the disbursement of more than ₹42,000 crores across 4.2 million loans by the end of FY24.
  • At the same time, more than 10 million customers have been equipped with personal finance management tools for cash-flow analysis and expense management.
