Details

This Fintech Sector Strategy is all about the action the government has taken to make the UK the best place to start and grow a Fintech business, and what else we plan to do to maintain this position.

This Fintech Sector Strategy is split into two parts:

  • Meeting the needs of the Fintech sector looks at what further action we can take to remove barriers to entry and growth faced by Fintech firms. This draws on data from the UK Fintech Census, a comprehensive review of the state of the sector and the challenges it faces. The Fintech Census was commissioned by government at the inaugural International Fintech Conference in March 2017.

  • New opportunities offered by UK Fintech identifies areas of emerging opportunity offered by UK Fintech, including new technologies and ensuring that the benefits of Fintech are felt by everyone across the UK, including the financially excluded.
