This whitepaper is an independent, non-affiliated initiative created in a personal and collective spirit of Seva and inquiry. It is not associated with any political, religious, financial, or organisational entity, nor does it represent the official stance of any Gurdwara, institution, or group.

The ideas and information presented within are the result of honest research, personal reflections, and community observations. Every effort has been made to ensure accuracy and relevance; however, this document does not claim to be comprehensive or conclusive. Facts, figures, and examples have been included to illustrate the scale and potential of the concept, not to dictate final decisions or frameworks.

This whitepaper is not a finalised solution, nor is it a binding proposal. Instead, it is a humble invitation to the Sikh Sangat across the globe—to discuss, debate, refine, and co-create the idea of a financial institution rooted in Sikh values.

Every point, idea, model, and proposal mentioned here is open to revision, disagreement, and improvement. The sole purpose of this paper is to ignite a dialogue, stimulate collective brainstorming, and lay the foundation for what could become a community-powered movement.

Let us come together in Vichar, so we may walk together in Kaaraj.
