Financial Technology individual assignment requires you to analyse two firms defined as being in the Financial Technology sector i.e. technology-enabled financial services. You must choose one firm whose name starts with the same letter as your first name. You must choose another firm whose name starts with the same letter as your family name. [Failure to comply with this requirement will mean a rejected submission i.e. a mark of zero. If you have any problem in understanding the requirement, please contact Owain.] The firms’ names must appear on the report’s cover page alongside your name.
Your report must include the following elements:
explain why the two firms can be defined as ‘FinTech’ firms and discuss the characteristics of the FinTech segment(s) in which they operate e.g. credit, payments, investment management, cryptocurrency;
explain what makes the firms unique compared to competitors in their respective FinTech segment(s) and explain the innovation(s) represented by the firms’ services;
critically analyse the firms’ business models, their performance up to 2022 (including the impact of the pandemic and high inflation on the firm) and their future prospects;
use academic literature (published 2018-2023) to discuss how your findings in parts (i) to
(iii) fit within the context of at least one of these FinTech phenomena: decentralisation, democratisation, digitalisation, disruption and disintermediation.
The firms must be operating in 2023 i.e. you cannot choose a firm which has been acquired or ceased to exist. There is no restriction in terms of countries. Your report will benefit from the inclusion of financial information e.g. data on accounting variables, growth, market share, investment in technology and/or marketing. Tables and graphics are encouraged. However, the report is not necessarily required to have a quantitative focus.

Any detected attempt to use such tools will result in referral to the Business School Academic Integrity Officer and may lead to a mark of zero for your work.
