The Muthoot Group was founded in 1887 by Late Shri Ninan Mathai Muthoot, which has a family legacy of more than 800 years, as a modest trading business within the remote village of Kozhencherry in Kerala. The village was geographically handicapped and barren of all prerequisites for starting and expanding a business like – mobility, land, resources, industry and favorable market conditions, etc. Despite these challenging situations, The Muthoot Group continued to grow and expand as a result of the sheer will, diligence, honesty, and trustworthiness exhibited by its founders.
They provide personal and business loans secured by gold jewelry, or gold loans to individuals who possess gold but are unable to access formal credit within an inexpensive time-frame, or to those people whose credit won’t be available within the smallest amount to satisfy the unanticipated or other short-term liquidity requirements. They have served quite 70 crore satisfied customers (including repeated customers) at the right times.
