125 Crore (1.25billion) Indians are denied access to Formal Credit. Contrarily, Indians have 23000 tonnes of gold in their homes, its worth approximately 110 Lakh Crores ($1.4Trillion). Over 70% of this gold is in Rural India, which is also the most underbanked. Yellow Metal was founded in Nov 2019 with the purpose to transform the way people use their household gold. We believe we can monetize this gold mine for rural India to make their lives better.
