The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on December 8, 2023, announced that it will soon release a regulatory framework aimed at overseeing web-based loan comparison platforms known as web-aggregators of loan products (WALP). WALP offers the service of aggregating loan offers from multiple lenders on an electronic platform which allows borrowers to easily compare different offers and choose the most suitable loan option available from the participating lenders. This move by the RBI aims to create a structured system wherein these platforms compile loan offers.
