What are FinTech startups up to during Covid-19 lockdown? Smartphones becoming the primary means by which people access the internet lead to mushrooming of several FinTech players who brought about disruption in financial services. So, even as everyone is holed up in their homes but seamlessly connected through internet, how deeply are FinTech startups really impacted? The answer is not as simple as it may look.
Over the years, FinTech has become an umbrella term for a host of tech-enabled financial companies—digital payment platforms, online lenders and financial product companies—with starkly different business models. On one hand, insuretech startups are witnessing a sharp increase in demand during the COVID-19 crisis, but on the other hand online lenders are starting to worry about default in loan repayments. Moreover, like most sectors, FinTech startups too are grappling with business challenges ranging from fundraising to employees to customer engagement. Through this webinar, we aim to learn how FinTech startups should look at ways to connect, innovate and disrupt the financial services industry further.
