Global investment in Financial Technology (Fintech) ventures clearly signifies that the digital revolution has arrived in the financial services sector. Established financial services players are starting to take bold steps to engage with emerging innovations. The session discussed financial technology and its growing impact on the global banking industry and introduced the concepts of wealth management, portfolio management, risk management, and digital advisors, better known as Robo-Advisors.

The session also covered how Fintech provides benefits for its various customers and how it brings more transparency to an increasingly complex ecosystem, where investors need more granular understanding of a venture, and where entrepreneurs need relevant feedback. FinTech has a bright future and traditional financial institutions need to constantly innovate and diversify to mitigate the risk of being played out by their competitors.
