4. FINTECH: Understanding the
Definition
A term that’s ‘so fresh’, it hasn’t even featured in the online version of the
Oxford dictionary yet. And many, including the tech-savvy and entrepreneurs,
still haven’t gotten to grips with what it actually means.
We cannot however, deny its importance. Or foolishly put it into the category
of a ‘buzzword’. Fintech is changing how we live in society, and how we do
business.
To help understand it’s definition, Fintech is usually applied in the
‘technology start-up scene’ that is disrupting sectors such as mobile
payments, money transfers, loans, and fundraising.

5. BREAKING DOWN ‘Fintech’
The term ‘Fintech’ can apply to any innovation in how people transact
business.
Financial technology has rapidly grown since the revolution of the
internet and smartphones.
Fintech was actually a term that was once used for the ‘back-office’
work of banks and trading firms, but it now describes a broad variety
of technological interventions (into personal and commercial finance).
