This course aims to explore the major areas of fintech, the ways in which they are disrupting the financial services industry, and the challenges and opportunities they create.
We will start with a review of the structure of the financial sector as we have known it over the last century. We will then cover the main areas of fintech innovations and understand the three levels in which fintech is reshaping it: closing gaps, evolution, and revolution. We will see how these affect individuals, firms, financial markets, and economies.
Finally, we will discuss regulators’ efforts to integrate all this progress into a modern free market, enable fair conduct, and contribute to a stable and sustainable growth of the global economy.
