SMEs are recognized as the bedrock of global economic vitality, spurring job creation, and contributing to GDP growth. Despite this, they encounter formidable barriers in securing credit, culminating in an expansive credit accessibility chasm, which surged to $2.6 trillion in 2023. This widening gap emanates from stringent credit conditions, escalating borrowing expenses, and the limited accessibility of historical financial data. Additionally, with the global B2B e-commerce sphere poised to reach a valuation of USD $36 trillion by 2026, SMEs stand on the cusp of untapped potential. Success hinges on strategic market ingress, optimized logistics, and pioneering payment methodologies attuned to diverse consumer predilections and regulatory frameworks. Together, Yubi and MODIFI are unwavering in their dedication to nurturing a robust ecosystem for cross-border trade within India, unlocking a wealth of prospects for the nation’s enterprises.
