Fintech broking platform on Thursday said it acquired Dstreet Finance, a Bengaluru-based fintech startup, in its first-ever acquisition of a tech startup.
Dstreet Finance team has joined Angel One to spearhead content, user engagement and learning-related initiatives. This development paves the way for Angel One to expand its suite of consumer financial services.
“The integration of the Dstreet team is a strategic move towards enhancing our offerings for the next-generation clients and aligns with our vision of evolving into a comprehensive fintech company,” said Dinesh Thakkar, Chairman and Managing Director of Angel One.
This move comes on the heels of Angel One’s recent in-principle approval from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) to sponsor a mutual fund—a significant development for Angel One and its clients alike.
Besides mutual funds and SIPs, Angel One will also be expanding its customer solutions into asset management, wealth management, insurance, and lending products. With an emphasis on consumer credit products, it aims to provide a complete financial solution for clients, reinforcing its goal to be the go-to financial platform for all.
