Globally recognized as a smoking hot investment sector, fintech is one of the fastest-growing areas for venture capitalists. In a shift that is both technologically and generationally driven, digitally savvy investors are demanding the ability to manage personal investments in a hands-on, online manner. The fintech industry needs to respond.
Approaching the market with a non-traditional perspective, many startups are now coming up with innovative ways to provide investors with personalized, relatable experiences that are radically different.
2014 may well have spelled the tipping point of real change and/or disintermediation in the sector with total investments reaching $2.97 billion in the last year. Innovative entrants to fintech have provided investors with personalized, relatable experiences that are radically different from what we ordinarily think of as financial services.
With 2015 almost here, we’ll see if banking and wealth management will undergo the same disruptive transformation as the media and music industries in the next year. Getting there is going to take overcoming key challenges such as access to quality investment data, breaking down barriers with traditional investment firms and financial institutions (FI’s), as well as overcoming security issues.
These are just a few of the topics that will be aired in this invaluable webinar hosted by Yodlee Interactive and VentureBeat. Join us and a panel of experts on December 3rd at 10 am PT/1 pm ET to explore how the development and startup community is poised to capitalize on the transformation now exploding in the fintech and wealth management sector.

- What the future of fintech and wealth management looks like, and what’s driving it
- The critical role of big data in fintech
- The methods of bringing fintech innovation to market faster
- How financial institutions and non-FI entities can both capitalize on major generational and technological changes taking place
