Market Growth
As the use of mobile devices and technology-based solutions grows, the demand for financial and banking solutions that can be accessed through personal devices increases.
Drivers
The new innovations in banking are expected to radically change the way consumers buy, pay, deposit and buy insurance. A new wave of Fintech technology is changing customer behavior and interactions today. Each modern bank has a unique mobile application that allows its customers to trade online and transfer money to other users around the world. This is creating an essential financial technology market where suppliers can take advantage of the demands of multiple banks. Cybersecurity is experiencing significant challenges in information technology. Organizations vulnerable to financial losses due to cyber-attacks are investing heavily in FinTech, which provides not only financial data security, but also offers convenient transactions, ensuring smooth operation of the financial system and perfect cash flow.
Restraints
Concerns about consumer data security are limiting the growth of the financial technology market (FinTech). Fintech companies collect a large amount of data about their customers, including personal information and other financial records. Many Fintech companies track their users by collecting data on their customers' online spending behaviors and social media patterns. Some of the primary security problems for companies operating in the Fintech market include data loss, data leakage, malware injection, account hacking and cloud service abuse. In these cases, distrust of the client arises in the safe handling of personal information, which limits the growth of the North American Fintech market.
