UK-India Fintech Sectors to Drive Growth, Prosperity of Both Countries: Alderman Vincent Keaveny, Lord Mayor, City of London

MUMBAI, India, Sept. 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- In his keynote address at the Global Fintech Fest 2022 (GFF 2022) in Mumbai today, Alderman Vincent Keaveny, The Rt Hon.

"The City of London Corporation is committed to deepening the terms between the businesses of London and India.
