Course summary
MSc Fintech provides the latest information in computing for the financial sector, financial theory, ethical and regulatory constraints, and business skills, throughout complementing theory with a hands-on approach. Fintech is taking over the banking and finance industry, with applications in several other sectors. The way we handle money is changing, a new concept of digital identity is emerging and the role of data and its safety and privacy requirements are key. New applications and potential markets are being explored, including central bank digital currencies (CBDC), cryptocurrencies, peer-to-peer lending platforms and open-banking services. Fintech includes the technology from big data and analytics, computing for finance, blockchain and digital currencies, mobile computing and modern financial services. Some of the activity in the sector is being carried out by the large, existing financial institutions, but a strong drive comes from small companies who are developing disruptive technologies.
