UPI likely to grow further in several countries: RBI governor Shaktikanta Das

Reserve Bank of India (RBI) governor Shaktikanta Das said he is optimistic that the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) will grow further in several countries.

Mr. Das, who is on a five-day visit to Odisha, said UPI is already present in many countries through QR codes and the linkage of fast payment systems, and discussions are under way with several other nations.

“We expect this to grow further at the global level and internationalise in future,” he told reporters in Bhubaneswar on Friday evening (August 30, 2024).
