​FinTech is a rapidly growing global industry, which is expected to generate close to £1.2 trillion in revenue per year by the end of the decade.

​From personalised banking services and products to prediction and forecasting, business intelligence and decision-making, and fraud prevention, Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies are powering this transformation.
