Collin Timms
Founder Chair | Guardian Bank
Collin Timms is the Founder and Chairman of Guardian Bank in Bengaluru, India. In a city and country where loan sharks prey on people every day, Guardian Bank is a bright spot.
While banking is a largely impersonal system set up to avoid risk by tying creditworthiness to capital instead of character, Collin and his team take a different approach.
Inspired by faith that sees the infinite worth of each person, Guardian Bank provides a more humane view to the money lending process that provides hope for everyday households and commercial customers.
Collin is also the Managing Trustee of The Bridge Foundation, a social enterprise organization. Mr. Timms has 30 years of business experience having founded and nurtured business in Financial Services, education, health care and software.
