With a legacy spanning over four decades, Sashi Publications is a trusted name in publishing high-quality journals and books in the fields of Insurance and Banking. Renowned for our credibility and wide readership, we have built a strong presence across India and in several international markets.

Over the years, we’ve remained at the forefront of industry insights, delivering rich content that empowers professionals, students, and organizations to stay updated with the latest developments.
In 1988, we further expanded our publishing line with the introduction of Banking Finance, a dedicated journal that covers the entire spectrum of the banking and finance industry. This monthly publication has become a respected voice within the financial sector.
We have also built a strong digital footprint with our specialized portals.
