Book Description
"This great new book offers valuable and timely insights on FinTech from various vantage points. Written by a cohort of distinguished academics and practitioners, the reader is treated to constructive analysis and presentation of developments in the field of FinTech and its potential impact on financial services, and banks in particular, as well as the economy and society at large. Anyone interested in the origins and meaning of FinTech and how it has emerged as a disruptive though arguably positive influence from a competition perspective will enjoy reading this book. Apart from the incredible opportunities afforded by FinTech, this book examines the potential for both old and new risks to arise, and identifies challenges facing policy makers and regulators to secure their multiple objectives, such as, greater competition, financial stability, consumer protection and welfare gains. This book would be of particular interest as a text to contemporary business school courses looking to explore the role of financial technology as a disruptor to banking, finance and insurance sectors, as well as to the more casual reader with an interest in getting up to speed on this emergent and exciting area" -Professor Martin Meyer, Vice Rector for International Affairs and Director of InnoLab (Professor of Innovation), University of Vaasa, Finland Timothy King is Director of the Centre for Quantitative Finance at the University of Kent.

Navigating Big Finance and Big Technology for Global Change
Author: Gayle Peterson
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030407128
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
The role of big finance and technology in social change is rapidly evolving. This book examines why large financial players are entering the social sector through social finance. Drawing on empirical research, the authors analyse the opportunities this new interest and commitment presents as well as the potential harm that can be done to vulnerable people when beneficiaries are not treated as partners and the social needs of people are not placed at the centre of the investment model. This book introduces a ‘Deliberate Leadership’ framework to help big finance tackle problems with no easy solutions. The book also analyses how current technologies (including blockchain) are being used and the benefits and drawbacks of different features of these technologies from the standpoint of the beneficiary and investor. The authors derive a series of insights into the model of technology for social finance and impact investing. Written as a practical book for students alongside a field book based on an action learning methodology, this volume will be useful to those in social finance and impact investing.

This open access Pivot demonstrates how a variety of technologies act as innovation catalysts within the banking and financial services sector. Traditional banks and financial services are under increasing competition from global IT companies such as Google, Apple, Amazon and PayPal whilst facing pressure from investors to reduce costs, increase agility and improve customer retention. Technologies such as blockchain, cloud computing, mobile technologies, big data analytics and social media therefore have perhaps more potential in this industry and area of business than any other. This book defines a fintech ecosystem for the 21st century, providing a state-of-the art review of current literature, suggesting avenues for new research and offering perspectives from business, technology and industry.
