FinTech: A road map for the future of finance
Finance´s New Rules
FinTech is “creative destruction”. It´s about how technology is upending finance, and both destroying some traditional finance roles and creating new ones in your post-Master career. In this class, Prof. Zitzer will illustrate what´s happening by looking at 5 stories/mini case studies across the diverse FinTech landscape:
- Lego and WealthTech
- Cryptocurrencies - How to value something virtual that doesn’t pay anything?
- Payments – How disruptive innovation might have predicted the success of M-Pesa.
- The Five Forces of Alibaba
- Crowdfunding – Are investing crowds wise or mad?
