For the third consecutive year, PwC Italy has carried out a research on the FinTech universe in Italy.
Three years ago, the initiative was born to fill an analysis gap. In this third edition the objectives of the work have been articulated and the increasingly in-depth and analytical photography of this sector (which in the meantime it is growing and maturing) has become functional in providing value to the various stakeholders: Banks, Insurances, Institutions, FinTech companies.
A total of 364 companies were analyzed, including 278 FinTechs and 86 TechFins.
While the report was being edited the Covid-19 emergency broke out. It is certainly too early to make reliable predictions about the impact of this emergency on the FinTech industry, as well as throughout the economic, productive, social environment in which we live, but this report includes some considerations about possible scenarios.
To complete and enrich the scenario of innovation opportunities in the financial sector, we have included the analysis of some players of interest in the area of Tech Enablers and Cybersecurity.
