enhance traditional
financial services.
What Fintech Is
Fintech encompasses a
wide range of financial
services, including
banking, insurance,

6. Fintech Opportunities
Financial technology, commonly known as fintech, is one of the most
popular areas among software engineering businesses today. Virtually
everyone deals with money and payments every day, and creative minds
can come up with tons of solutions to improve those interactions.
Solutions to people's finance-related needs can come in the form of
software.
7. Trends of fintech areas
The most recent advancements in financial technology are shaped by digital finance trends, often
propelled by emerging technologies such as AI, ML, and blockchain. These trends are responsive to
consumer preferences and shifts in regulations.
8. Buy Now Pay Later
Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) stands as a prominent fintech innovation, experiencing rapid growth,
according to Business Insider. This trend allows consumers to defer payments for online or in-store
purchases, and the global BNPL market is predicted to surge from $24 billion in 2020 to $67 billion by
2025.
9. Fintech Super App
The surge of fintech super apps is a significant trend, featuring versatile
applications that offer diverse services to a broad user base. These all-in-
one solutions are disrupting the fintech industry by capitalizing on
innovation opportunities.
10. Digital-only banks or neobanks
Digital-only banks, commonly called neobanks, operate exclusively online and provide various financial
services, including checking accounts, savings accounts, and loans. These banks are renowned for their
convenience, user-friendly interfaces, and competitive fees.
Neobanks offer round-the-clock accessibility through intuitive websites and mobile apps, disrupting the
traditional banking industry.
11. Blockchain Technology
Blockchain, a rising fintech trend, has significant potential. In a Deloitte
survey, 76% foresee digital assets replacing fiat money in 5-10 years.
It offers data protection, verification, identification, and enhanced
traceability. Decentralized finance (DeFi) challenges centralized systems,
reshaping finance from trading to insurance.
12. Regtech
Regulatory compliance poses significant challenges for banks due to the complexity and cost of
numerous regulations. Companies often incur expenses for legal support or face non-compliance fines as
the regulatory landscape expands. This fuels the demand for Regulatory Technology (Regtech), which
offers automated solutions to monitor the correctness and legality of financial operations.
Regtech tasks include client identification, data processing, protection, and financial risk analysis. It
automates extensive regulatory requirements for each business line through the integration of
automation, Big Data, and machine learning (ML).
