Master in Fintech - Máster en Fintech

Get ready to disrupt the market and revolutionise the financial services through innovation and application of new technologies.

Over the last 5 years, private investment in Fintech companies globally has increased ten-fold to over $25bn in 2017, fuelling start-ups which are targeting the most profitable areas of traditional banking activities, while banks have been busy adjusting to the cost of an ever-increasing burden of regulations following the financial crisis. Through technology and nimble structures, digital disruption is driving the Banking industry to a tipping point that will forever transform it. Two centuries after the Industrial Revolution and only 30 years after Big Bang (deregulation of financial markets), join us to embrace the Digital Revolution coming to the world of finance!
