As always, we have a reading list for our upcoming roundtable on how fintech companies will navigate data localisation. (Some of our previous reading lists are here and here.) This discussion will take place at the Grand Hyatt Mumbai this week, November 23 (Friday) 2018. The Chatham House Rule applies, so points raised will be made public but not attributed to any person and/or organisation.
