Instead of sharing PDFs or passwords, you can now authorize data sharing securely through regulated entities called AAs.<\/p>\n<p>As explained in <a href=\"https:\/\/financialservices.gov.in\/beta\/en\/account-aggregator-framework\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rbi account aggregator framework<\/a>, the AA system connects three parties \u2014 <b>Financial Information Providers (FIPs)<\/b> like banks, <b>Financial Information Users (FIUs)<\/b> like lenders or insurers, and you, the customer. When you grant consent, your financial data moves digitally from the provider to the user \u2014 encrypted, verified, and time-bound.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you apply for a loan on a fintech app, it can request access to your savings account statement through your AA. Once you approve the consent request, the app receives the data \u2014 but not your login credentials.

Can I stop sharing my data later?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes. You can revoke consent anytime directly through your AA app or financial institution.<\/p>\n<h4>5. Is the AA framework safe?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes.
