Overview

The financial world is in transformation which has accelerated in the last 24 months. New players and existing FinTech players are gaining ground, and the first InsurTech unicorns are coming out of Europe and India. Also, regulatory battles have added to the challenges of disruption, and still, the verdict is open on the endgame here. We will analyze all these trends in practical ways, and building on FinTech/Insurtech, we will discuss, analyze and brainstorm these industries and new technologies. We will look into different business cases, repeat some financial basics and look into valuation of Fintech players. Behavioural science and economics will be addressed as well.
