May 23, 2025 — We are proud to announce that Ezee.ai has officially joined the SME Finance Forum, a global network of more than 300 institutions across 190 countries, committed to expanding access to finance for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Backed by the G20 and managed by the International Finance Corporation (IFC), the Forum brings together financial institutions, fintechs, development agencies, and policy leaders focused on closing the global SME credit gap through knowledge sharing and innovation.

This milestone reinforces our commitment to reimagining how credit flows to the world’s most vital business segment of SME’s by combining intelligent infrastructure with inclusive collaboration. We believe that solving the SME finance challenge is not just about capital availability; it’s about speed, flexibility, and trust in the systems that deliver it.

Welcoming us into the Forum, Qamar Saleem, Head of SME Finance Forum, remarked:

“It is with great pleasure that I welcome ezee.ai to the SME Finance Forum. ezee.ai’s innovative approach aligns perfectly with our mission to expand access to finance for small and medium-sized enterprises worldwide. By joining the Forum, they bring valuable expertise and cutting-edge technology to our global network of financial institutions, fintech’s, and development organizations.”

At Ezee.ai, we’ve built a platform that empowers banks and financial institutions to design, launch, and scale credit products with unprecedented speed and control. Our AI-powered, zero-code, drag-and-drop infrastructure helps financial institutions go from concept to production in days not months. With a modular, microservices-driven architecture, plug-and-play integration capabilities, and cloud-agnostic deployment, we eliminate the typical bottlenecks that hold back traditional lending. All done while maintaining the highest standards of data security and regulatory compliance.

For us, joining the SME Finance Forum is more than a recognition, it’s a platform for meaningful collaboration. It allows us to engage directly with the institutions shaping the future of SME lending and to contribute practical solutions that can scale across diverse markets.

As Rajendra Awasthi, our CEO and Co-Founder, shared:

“Joining the SME Finance Forum is an important milestone in our global journey. At ezee.ai, we believe the future of SME lending lies in collaboration—between innovators, regulators, and traditional institutions. Through this membership, we look forward to co-creating the next chapter of inclusive, technology-led finance across emerging markets.”

The SME Finance Forum offers members access to peer networks, innovation hubs, solution clinics, best practices from around the world, risk mitigation tools, investment linkages, and high-impact events. For Ezee.ai, this means new opportunities to engage with global peers, shape policy discussions, and bring our technology to the forefront of inclusive finance movements.

We look forward to contributing to this dynamic ecosystem and continuing our mission to make credit truly Ezee – powered by AI, designed for speed, and built for inclusion.
