  • How Financial Technologies Are Revolutionizing the Financial Industry
    HOW FINANCIAL TECHNOLOGIES ARE REVOLUTIONIZING THE FINANCIAL INDUSTRY Lucie Duval Dissertation submitted as partial requirement for the conferral of Master in Finance Supervisor: António Freitas Miguel, Assistant Professor of Finance, Department of Finance, ISCTE Business School September 2016 NIZING THE THE FINANCIAL NIZING INDUSTRY Lucie Duval LOGIES ARE LOGIESREVOLUTIO ARE HOW FINANCIALTECHNO Abstract Financial technologies (fintech) have known an incredible exposure over the last years, attracting investments of large billions of dollars. Fintech can be seen as the match between finance and technology and they are imposing a way of thinking in all the branches of the financial industry. The main aim of this dissertation is to study how the financial technologies are revolutionizing the financial industry. After the financial crisis of 2008, customers have changed their ways of seeing “Finance” and, more particularly, “Banks”, looking for products and services responding to their needs. Moreover, the financial crisis has highlighted a relevant number of dysfunctions of the banking sector and on the financial regulation. Regulators have strengthened their requirements for banks, particularly in their relations with clients. These have opened a breach for Fintech companies and they are using it. Fintech companies rely on a different value proposition to clients that is based on a timesaving, fast and clear experience. Indeed they are proposing majors innovation in products and also in the processes. Fintech companies have put the customer back at the center of all their attention; customer becomes again the top priority. Financial technologies have already revolutionized the finance industry even if their impact on the market, for the moment may still be seen as trivial.

  • January 2016 Innovation Grows Where Mpos Goes
    JANUARY 2016 INNOVATION GROWS WHERE MPOS GOES The mPOS market in America alone is expected to grow at a CAGR of 51% during the forecast period 2016-2020. That’s largely contingent on prolific growth in the number of mobile phones and the payment methods it enables. However, the length and breadth of mPOS’ potential can be reached only if hardware innovation keeps up with software applications. Mobile point of sale is essential for growing micro- merchants, but the technology isn’t always accessible to them. Verifone’s latest platform could be a case in point to take innovation further and make it accessible where it matters. Erik Vlugt, VP of Global Products at Verifone, recently discussed with MPD CEO Karen Webster how Verifone plans to change the space with the recent release of its new e265 mPOS platform. e265 marks “a continued investment on Verifone’s part in mobile POS in general,” Vlugt said, calling it “one more product in our digital line.” “We are committed to the wonderful world of mPOS -- and that’s not going to change; we see huge growth there globally,” Vlugt added. In this particular case, as Vlugt explained, the e265 is based on a proven platform called the e355, which has been very successful with larger retailers in the market, especially in the integrated space. “We are now taking a lot of those same benefits and features to smaller segments as well,” said Vlugt. “The smaller segments typically have a Verifone payment terminal, which has served them well over time, but in some cases these merchants want to add more functionality to overall customer engagement including things they’re doing on tablets and handheld devices.” These sorts of engagement activities may include loyalty, other commerce applications, things with price checking and so on.

  • October 2015 Cover Story
    OCTOBER 2015 COVER STORY Six different letters of the alphabet are turning the mPOS segment on its head these days: EMV and NFC. iZettle announced in late June that it would be the first to NFC enable its mPOS reader which was EMV-enabled from the start. As a technology company headquartered in Sweden, for its mPOS solution to work, that was a critical requirement, but its announcement in July was intended to signal its compatibility with Apple Pay, which launched in July in the U.K. Then, later that summer, Square announced that it would NFC enable dongles for micro- merchants to use. EMV was something it had incorporated into its readers earlier in the year and its newfound embrace of NFC was intended to also ride the “Pay” bandwagons in the U.S. – Apple and Android. Square also said that it planned to give away 250k of them to give micro- merchants the same acceptance leg up that larger retailers have in accepting not only chip payments but mobile-enabled EMV payments. And just this week, PayPal threw its mPOS hat into the EMV/NFC ring. PayPal Here, which, today, is compatible with iOS and Android devices, now accepts chip cards (both EMV chip-and-PIN and EMV chip-and-signature), magnetic stripe and NFC transactions, including Apple Pay, Android Pay and Samsung Pay, along with other NFC-enabled devices and cards. All of this is part of PayPal’s plan to integrate payments within a more tailored solution for retailers. A recent study shows that mPOS will juxtapose the proliferation of mobile services in retail — for pushing offers, tracking inventory and sales.
