    FinTech is an abbreviation for Financial Technology. It is often used to describe an innovative use of technology in the design and delivery of financial products. FinTech is being used by banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions to deliver new services to users in a cost-effective manner. It is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world because of the potential disruption it can cause in the world of finance which is dominated by large government and private banks.

    The mobile phone has created numerous new opportunities for growth and innovation in the FinTech Sector. It is leveling the financial playing field by making services previously accessible to only institutional clients now available to the common man.
