This fully updated and revised second edition provides a practical examination of the opportunities and challenges presented by the rapid development of FinTech in recent years, particularly for regulators, who must decide how to apply current law to ever-changing concepts driven by continually advancing technologies. It addresses new legislative guidance on the treatment of cryptoassets and smart contracts, the European Commission’s Digital Finance Strategy and FinTech Action Plan, as well as analysing significant recent case law.

Key features of the second edition include:

  • Discussion of the impact of Brexit and the Covid-19 pandemic on the development and adoption of FinTech products
  • Detailed treatment of a broad spectrum of legal and regulatory issues in the FinTech sector, featuring insights from 33 experts from 10 countries
  • Examination of potential blockchain applications in the financial services industry, with a focus on smart contracts and regulatory challenges to widespread adoption
  • Analysis of the key legal, regulatory and compliance issues surrounding FinTech developments in banking, payments and fundraising, from patents and robo-advice to novel solutions for supporting innovation such as regulatory sandboxes

Offering a thorough guide to the sector for practical use, this book will be invaluable for in-house lawyers as well as law firms looking for an overview of the legal and regulatory landscape of FinTech. It will also be an essential text for academics and students looking to understand the key issues in the field, as well as those interested in perspectives across the breadth of the sector.
