BUSINESS CORRESPONDENTS & FACILITATORS
Business Correspondents (BCs) & Business Facilitators (BFs) are representatives appointed by banks to act as their agent and provide banking services in remote locations where the bank does not have a presence in order to promote financial inclusion. The fundamental difference in the role of the BC and BF is that BCs are permitted to carry out regular transactions for customers on behalf of the bank.
