“Smallcase’s vision has always been to build simple and transparent products that are relevant for every investor’s portfolio,
“The opportunity to help millions of Indians design better financial futures is one of huge responsibility and we will continue to deliver on it with honesty and integrity along with our partners,” said Vasanth Kamath, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of smallcase.
