Chapter 1
Navigating the FinTech Landscape
IN THIS CHAPTER
FinTech has undoubtedly become one of the hottest topics in business. Web searches for the term fintech in Google have grown exponentially in the last several years, so it’s obvious that people are curious about it. But what is it, and why is it relevant to today’s financial industry? This chapter looks at those very basic questions, helping prepare you for the more detailed information you discover later in this book.
What Is FinTech, Anyway?
FinTech is also frequently used as an umbrella term for various subcategories, such as WealthTech and RegTech. You find out more about these subcategories in Chapter 2.
Analyzing FinTech’s Dimensions
- Which part of finance is being impacted (financial sector)?
- Which business model is being used?
- Which technology is being used?
FINTECH Circle has coined the term Fintech Cube to describe the intersections of these factors. Figure 1-1 illustrates this cube, in which there are three axes: the financial sector on the x-axis, the business model on the y-axis, and technology on the z-axis.
Each of these dimensions can be further categorized. For example, Figure 1-2 expands on the concept by adding key areas of financial services that can benefit from FinTech. All financial sectors are shown on one side of the cube, including retail banking, trading, and insurance (among others).
Figure 1-3 summarizes the most important business models from business-to-consumer (B2C), business-to-business (B2B), business-to-business-to-consumer (B2B2C), to business-to-government/regulator (B2G), to platform-based business models, crowdfunding, and peer-to-peer (P2P) lending.
Figure 1-4 shows the third dimension — the technology being used, which can range from cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML), blockchain (distributed ledger technologies), the Internet of Things (IoT), and quantum computing, to augmented and virtual reality. Part 2 covers these technologies in more detail.
FinTech start-ups, for example, can now be more easily categorized and compared. For example, you may have a retail banking (financial sector x-axis) solution focused on the business model of B2C and using various technologies, such as cloud, big data analytics, and AI. Such a company would be called a challenger bank, sometimes also referred to as digital bank or neo-bank.
