Synopsis

Financial technology (FinTech) and its related products are considered a major disruptive innovation in financial services, substantially elevating financial solutions and new business models. Resulting from the fusion of finance and smart mobile technology, this innovative technology requires additional investigation into its adoption, challenges, opportunities, and future directions so that we may understand and develop the technology to its full potential.

FinTech Development for Financial Inclusiveness moves beyond the theoretical areas of FinTech to comprehensively explore the recent FinTech initiative scenarios with respect to processes, strategies, challenges, lessons learned, and outcomes within economic development as well as trade and investment. Covering a range of topics such as decentralized finance and global electronic commerce, it is ideal for industry professionals, business owners, consultants, practitioners, instructors, researchers, academicians, and students.
