GRIP - Manager - Business Development (4-15 yrs)

Anywhere in India/Multiple Locations Job Code: 142681

About Grip :

GRIP is an online fintech company aimed at providing a convenient, hassle free investment experience through investing in physical assets. The company kickstarted its journey in 2019 and was founded by Nikhil Aggarwal, who previously served as the COO of Chalo and Vice President of Morgan Stanley. He also worked for the World Bank.

The leasing industry in India remains largely unexplored and GRIP's objective is to make retail investors aware of it as an investment option. Through GRIP, one can invest in physical assets leased to corporates and earn stable monthly returns. The proposition is not as volatile as the share market and the returns are extremely healthy. GRIP focuses on the employed upper-middle class spectrum and aims to provide an effective alternative to these investors.
