Decentralized Finance: A Potential Paradigm Shift for Financial Inclusion and Economic Empowerment

Author(s) Anuradha Gupta
Country India
Abstract Decentralized Finance, or DeFi, is a financial ecosystem built on blockchain technology, aiming to recreate traditional financial services without the need for central authorities like banks or intermediaries. It is a growing ecosystem of financial applications and services built on blockchain technology. Unlike traditional finance, which relies on centralized institutions like banks, DeFi leverages peer-to-peer (P2P) networks to facilitate financial transactions. Traditional financial systems often leave individuals and communities, particularly those in developing economies or marginalized groups, excluded due to limited access, high transaction costs, and stringent regulations. Decentralized Finance (DeFi) emerges as a potential solution, leveraging blockchain technology to offer an alternative financial ecosystem built on transparency, disintermediation, and accessibility. This paper investigates the potential of DeFi in fostering financial inclusion and economic empowerment.
DeFi has gained traction in India, with a growing interest in blockchain-based financial services. However, regulatory uncertainties have led to some cautiousness. Indian regulators are exploring frameworks to address potential risks while encouraging innovation in the DeFi space. As the regulatory landscape evolves, the adoption and development of DeFi in India are likely to be influenced by government policies and industry collaborations
