FinTech
Technology is redefining the international financial services sector and the way companies interact with their clients and customers. New players are bringing new rules to the table in terms of investing in new but unproven technologies, disruptive of legacy financial industry and physical infrastructure.
FinTech challenges established ideas but also provides an opportunity for existing market participants to diversify their product range, improve efficiencies, manage risk more effectively and reach a wider customer base.
