Fintech Reimagined: Pioneering Solutions for the Digital Age

Financial institutions aren’t typically known for their scrappy agility. Between legacy systems, overhead concerns, and the high bars of regulatory and security compliance, banks and other financial service providers have historically been slow to embrace technological innovation. Fintech is changing all that.

Blog_fintech_00_hero

Once the stuff of nimble startups, fintech is now essential to established institutions. It enables finance that’s strong, scalable, and secure, and it’s an integral part of how we bank, invest, pay, shop, and do business.

Whether it’s through mobile wallets or blockchain, fintech delivers change that is more cost-effective, more secure, and quicker than business as usual. Through our expertise in fintech consulting and financial software development, we collaborate with innovative startups and fintech companies across various domains, including financial deal management, pet wellness, and solar energy.

Our takeaway? The best fintech engineers think in and outside of the financial services world — and its security needs. They’re constantly weighing potential vulnerabilities and building software with powerful protections.

What’s inside

What does fintech look like for innovative startups? What about for enterprise institutions? Our comprehensive guide to fintech has something for every business, including our breakdown of the industry’s unicorns, the latest news on emerging solutions, and essential context on how technological innovation is unlocking a financial future that is more nimble, personalized, and secure.

Fintech goes way beyond banking

If fintech seems confined to financial services like banking, lending, and real estate, it’s time to think bigger.

With applications across use cases, fintech empowers streamlined, enhanced, and even automated financial services across industries, from a retailer’s online payment gateway to a startup’s branded debit cards. That big picture understanding of what fintech can do, regardless of the industry, can underpin strategic growth for your company.

Let’s get straight to the point

Fintech holds claim to the most unicorns by sector, but this legendary herd took a hit in 2022 along with the rest of the industry. We break down the who, what, and where of fintech unicorns to help you better understand the innovation and investment happening now in financial technology.

From exploring fluctuations in funding to how fintech unicorns weather market turbulence, our report combines extensive statistics, deep analytics, and expert insights that you can take to the bank.
