The story
Federal Bank is one of India's leading private sector scheduled commercial banks headquartered in Kerala, with a strong focus on Non-Resident Indian (NRI) banking services. The bank has progressively invested in digital banking infrastructure and partnership-led growth to extend its reach beyond its traditional Kerala base. A notable strategic move is its partnership with Mashreq Neo to facilitate NR account opening for Indians in the UAE, signaling its embedded/partnership-driven approach to cross-border NRI banking.
