Challenges faced by the fintech industry
Regulations
Medici Insights projects that global demand for regulatory services will exceed $118bn by 2020. In this light, fintech companies look for innovative and reliable tools that will guarantee compliance with existing regulations.
Transaction fraud
Transactions remain difficult to track, and this opacity leaves room for fraud and increases distrust from clients. J.P. Morgan found that in the last five years, payments fraud grew by 82% among US companies.
Unbanked population
Millions of US residents can’t get loans, mortgages, or rent apartments. According to CFPB, every 10th adult in the US doesn’t have a bank account, while 19m residents have unscored credit histories.
Slow procedures
From application and credit risk evaluation to transfer of ownership and repayment, modern lending processes are complex and drown in bureaucracy, taking creditors’ time on manual processing.
Expensive remittances
Cross-border transactions involve banks, credit card processors, and other intermediaries, increasing the complexity and costs of the whole process.
Cyberattacks
According to law firm RCP, data breaches reported to FCA jumped 480% between 2017 and 2018, reflecting growing gaps in modern security practices.

Blockchain applications in fintech
Use case 1. Fast remittances
Currently
Fees, regulations, and fraud risks harden remittances, particularly cross-border ones, and even result in fund theft during transactions.
With blockchain
Provide fast and tamper-proof remittance services for clients, with all transactions taking place on a decentralized, incorruptible blockchain network.
Use case 2. Digital payments
Currently
Customers who make purchases daily with credit cards often deal with the provider’s network issues, bringing slow payment processing and even fraud to the table.
With blockchain
Allow customers to pay in blockchain-enabled assets guaranteeing high transaction speeds along with data security.
Use case 3. Automated securities trading
Currently
Traditional securities trading is a slow and sometimes unreliable process, where buyers should deal with brokers before the exchange, which adds unnecessary friction.
With blockchain
Handle all trading steps, from order to confirmation, automatically by delegating intermediary-dependent tasks to self-enforcing smart contracts.
