Abstract :

Financial technology (fintech) has the potential to bring about significant changes in the financial sector, including increased access to financial services and greater financial inclusion for underserved populations. This paper investigates the adoption and use of fintech in developing countries, with a focus on the factors that influence its uptake and the potential benefits and challenges it presents. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study analyzes data from a variety of sources, including surveys, interviews, and case studies, to provide an in-depth understanding of the current state of fintech in developing countries. The results of the study show that fintech adoption in developing countries is driven by a combination of factors, including economic conditions, technological infrastructure, and regulatory environment. While fintech has the potential to bring about significant benefits, including increased access to financial services, improved financial literacy, and greater economic opportunity, it also presents challenges, including security and privacy concerns and the risk of further exclusion of vulnerable groups. Overall, the study highlights the need for a nuanced understanding of the complex factors that influence the adoption and use of fintech in developing countries and the importance of carefully addressing the potential challenges in order to maximize its benefits
