Project 02

Increased adoption of video KYC

SME, FD, LAS, & B2C - Bajaj Finance Ltd.

30% growth in sucessful KYC completion

18% growth in application completion

Project Overview

KYC as a process is mostly digital in Bajaj Finance Ltd. But on a closer look, the adoption of Video call to complete KYC by users is still very low. We looked at each step in the user flow and figured out the pain-points to iron out the chinks in the flow and guide them to successful completion.

Problem Statement

Many businesses like personal loans, wheels, SME, etc. could not get users to complete KYC successfully. On conducing tele-interviews with actual users we found:

Users would start the video call to complete KYC without adequate documents.

Users would drop-off as they thought the process was time-consuming.

Users wanted to complete at a time convenient to them
