Commenting on the acquisition, M2P Fintech Cofounder and CEO Madhusudanan R said the heightened action around Fintech over the past few years is anything to go by, it is likely to grow unabated over the next couple of decades.
“Globally we are witnessing new and relevant technologies disrupting every aspect of financial services and we realised Core Banking system is the nucleus of all things Fintech. Given that Central banks around the world are building out CBDC, besides all the work that’s happening around the broader applicability of Blockchain in financial services, we felt it was opportune to build a Core system that can act as a bridge between the legacy infrastructure and the future,” said M2P Fintech Cofounder and CEO Madhusudanan R.
By partnering with Satish and the BSG team, M2P Fintech Cofounder and CEO Madhusudanan R said the company will be able to realise this vision faster. “We believe in BSG, we have a fantastic product that can take on the world of New age banking,” said Madhusudanan R.
BSG ITSOFT Founder, CEO & MD Satish Krishnaswamy will take up a Product leadership role at M2P and will continue to build on the vision for BSG.

Over the past few years, we have been able to enable banks of all sizes to intelligently manage their operations and scale seamlessly,” said BSG ITSOFT Founder, CEO & MD Satish Krishnaswamy.
Joining M2P Fintech gives BSG ITSOFT an opportunity to accelerate its vision and build on relevant use cases. “We are looking forward to integrating our core banking platform with M2P’s API stack that will benefit our partner banks,” said BSG ITSOFT Founder, CEO & MD Satish Krishnaswamy.
