What is FinTech?Chris Skinner: “Fintech is about innovation and disruption of financial services. It has less to do with technology and more to do with business model reinvention and customer centric design.”

• Traditional fintech as ‘facilitators’ with larger incumbent technology firms supporting the financial services sector

• Emergent fintech as ‘disruptors’ with small innovative firms disintermediating incumbent financial services with technology.
