Technological progress and innovation are the linchpins of fintech development, and will continue to drive disruptive business models in financial services. According to McKinsey analysis, seven key technologies will drive fintech development and shape the competitive landscape of finance over the next decade:

McKinsey estimates that artificial intelligence (AI) can generate up to $1 trillion additional value for the global banking industry annually. Banks and other financial institutions are tipped to adopt an AI-first mindset that will better prepare them to resist encroachment onto their territory by expanding technology firms.

Speed and scalability are critical for new businesses and financial innovation, particularly amid the intense competition and winner-takes-all dynamics of the digital economy. Open source software, serverless architecture, and software-as-a-service (SaaS) have become must-haves for technology players and traditional financial institutions launching new fintech businesses.

sub-sectors that are most adept at harnessing technological innovations to launch applications, generate value, and shape the competitive landscape. In future, traditional financial institutions will need to bring their considerable resources to bear to stay on top of the gathering wave of financial industry disruption.

This paper answers two questions that help those analyzing FinTech understand its origins, growth, and potential to affect financial stability. First, it answers the question of why \"FinTech\" is happening right now. Many of the technologies that support FinTech innovations are not new, but financial institutions and entrepreneurs are only now applying them to financial products and services. Analysis of the supply and demand factors that drive \"traditional\" financial innovation reveals a confluence of factors driving a large quantity of innovation. Second, this paper answers the question of why FinTech is getting so much more attention than traditional innovation normally does. The answer to this question has to do with the 'depth' of innovation, a concept introduced in this paper. The deeper an innovation, the greater the ability of that innovation to transform financial services. The paper shows that many FinTech innovations are deep innovations and hence have a greater potential to change financial services. A greater potential to transform can also lead to a greater chance of affecting financial stability.
