Chris Skinner, quotes CFTE’s Fintech Job Report saying Fintech is not a flash in the pan, it’s worth a third of all banking

Chris Skinner comments on CFTE's Fintech Job Report 2021

Chris Skinner an influencer public figure in the financial technology space, is a renowned author and speaker in the industry. Chris quotes CFTE’s Fintech Job Report that analysed 225 Fintech Unicorns and 40,000 job roles to identify key trends in the financial services landscape.

Based on CFTE’s research, Chris Skinner wrote, “FinTech? A flash in the pan? No, it’s worth a third of all banking……Any banker who believes that FinTech is not a threat to their core business is deluded. I said this the other day, and I will say it again: banking is being reinvented by technology. That’s why FinTech counts, especially when we consider Open Banking, but it’s more than this. It’s the core of what I said way back when in Digital Bank.”
