Fintech has changed finance forever. What comes next?

The disruption caused by fintech has been profound. How will digitalisation continue to alter the financial services landscape? We explore this in the Q2 issue of Futureturns, our quarterly report on trends investing in equity markets. 

A changing industry 

We launched our Global FinTech strategy three years ago with a prediction that fintech companies would become the new financials. What is the outlook for the industry as technology continues to disrupt traditional service offerings? 

Developments will be driven by demographic, technological and policy changes. Clients are demanding better, faster and cheaper services, and regulators are making increased demands.  Only the savviest incumbents will survive, in our view. 

Fintech stocks, meanwhile, add many benefits to portfolios. We see huge growth potential given increasing access to financial services globally and other key secular trends.
