Chinese Loan Apps Exploited Covid Crisis, Weak Regulatory Framework to Cheat Millions of Indians, Says ED

News 18  

Chinese loan apps took advantage of the Covid crisis in India and cheated millions of gullible people who were in a financial mess. The central investigating agency has highlighted how the Chinese apps took advantage of a weak regulatory framework in India to make mind-boggling profits. Indian investigating agencies are keeping an eye on loan apps like Money View, Krazy Rupee, Rupee Bear, Lend Now, Paisa Loan, Rupee Key, Palm Cash, Small Wallet, Flip Cash, Cash Train, Angel Wallet, etc. However, through clause 37 of the Master Direction – Non-Banking Financial Company – Systemically Important Non-Deposit taking Company and Deposit taking Company Directions, 2016 dated 1.9.2016, the RBI has stipulated that the NBFCs shall lay out appropriate internal principles and procedures in determining interest rates and processing and other charges and directed to follow Fair Practices Code in this regard.
