Key Legal Highlights

Practical corporate advice from Supreme Court practitioners. Always consult legal counsel before signing founder equity schedules, RJSC filings, or commercial agreements.

Open Banking allows fintech firms to access banking APIs to offer innovative financial services. Though not yet formally implemented in Bangladesh, ZCA LEGAL helps fintechs prepare API agreements, handle data usage terms, and ensure fair consent mechanisms. We also assist in lobbying with regulators for pilot access. Legal preparation allows firms to be first movers when open banking frameworks arrive.
