Under the agreement, Meniga, the first company to develop a portfolio of financial management support services aimed at strengthening the bank-customer relationship, is joining Nexi Open: Nexi's partner banks will thus be able to offer their customers the fintech firm’s PFM and BFM services, enhanced by the new features enabling customer account access and money transfer between accounts governed by the PSD2 regulations. Credit institutions will be able to provide individuals with the advanced features of a Personal Financial Manager, while also providing small businesses with the services of a Business Financial Manager: in both cases the features can, at the discretion of each bank, be integrated directly into their digital properties, whether they are internet banking, apps or of another variety. Specifically, PFM services allow individuals to obtain a clear picture of their finances by aggregating transactions from several current accounts in a single view, to classify income and expenses according to specific financial items and to be notified promptly when budget limits are exceeded, thus helping to set personal savings targets.

  • Copenhagen Fintech Successful Cluster Development
    Copenhagen Fintech Successful cluster development Practical inspiration to start-up driven cluster development 2021 A publication commissioned by The Danish Industry Foundation. Authored by EY www.industriensfond.dk www.copenhagenfintech.dk www.ey.com PREFACE The global competition for entrepreneurs and tech talent is fierce. It requires unique ecosystems to attract, retain and accelerate the next generation of groundbreaking ideas, if new start-ups are to grow and mature in Denmark. In just a few years, Copenhagen Fintech has become one of Europe’s leading clusters and incubation environments for FinTech start-ups. The ecosystem and the many FinTech start-ups create jobs and value in the financial sector while also contributing to the digitalization of the Danish business environment in general. The recipe for creating successful ecosystems is not clear- cut. This is also the case for Copenhagen Fintech. A strong and ambitious vision, commitment from multiple stakeholders and a lot of hard work from passionate people have been required to make Copenhagen Fintech a national business success. Ultimately creating the international attention and acknowledgement, which the FinTech Hub enjoys today. With experience comes new learnings and insights. For this reason, The Danish Industry Foundation has asked EY to examine Copenhagen Fintech’s development since its foundation back in 2016. The aim is to outline the fundamentals, which must be present to create a strong cluster, and to derive a set of normative guidelines. These are meant to serve as inspiration on to how build successful ecosystems and future national strongholds. It is our hope that this publication and the set of recommendations will inspire the development of new generations of tech leaders in Denmark, and thereby help strengthen the competitiveness of the Danish industry and business environment.

It is fostering new businesses, driving digital innovation, and creating skilled jobs in an emerging global industry. Three years on from the release of the Financial Services Knowledge Hub’s first industry report, Unlocking the Potential: the Fintech Opportunity for Sydney, it’s clear that NSW is making real progress in creating a thriving and strong fintech environment. Sydney is now home to 59% of the nation’s fintech companies, it is the focus for venture-capital investment, and it boasts two locations purpose-built for supporting fintech start-ups. This includes the largest fintech incubator in Asia, Stone and Chalk. I’m particularly proud that the success of the sector is also helping to support start-up development across regional NSW, by providing a platform for fintech entrepreneurs, regardless of where they are located, to access the right support structures and markets.
