I’ve followed Arti Singh’s reporting for a while, and what stands out is her fearlessness. She takes contrarian stands, backs them with facts, and her fintech/startup pieces capture nuances most others miss. She asks tough questions, stays fair, and puts in the work.

For anyone trying to make sense of India’s fast-moving fintech and startup world, her work is a must-read.
