Shadhin is a financial technology company with the primary objective of digitising the financial sector of Bangladesh and driving financial inclusion among Bangladeshis. Currently, Shadhin has developed a mobile phone application called the “Shadhin App” which is a digital platform that will bring individuals under one marketplace to enable individuals to get funding from regulated financial entities.

Using our platform, borrowers can easily apply for loans in our partner, government-accredited financial institutions of Bangladesh. We have an entirely paperless process, allowing people to avail funding opportunities in less than 10 minutes. With our technology and vigorous verification process, we are able to connect high-quality borrowers with regulated banks and MRA entities.

*Please note that Shadhin does NOT provide any loans but only connects borrowers with financial institutions*
