FinTech 2025+

In collaboration with Convera and The Paypers

The disruptive world of financial technology and its impact on global commerce.

Developed in partnership with Convera and The Paypers, this insightful report analyses the current and future state of the fintech sector, emphasizing the crucial role of cross-border payments in international trade and finance. As global commerce evolves in the digital era, alongside rapidly shifting consumer and business expectations, the need for innovative, efficient and secure payment methods that cater to an interconnected world becomes ever more urgent.

This report explores trends shaping the fintech ecosystem, including advancements such as the integration of blockchain technology, the rise of real-time payments (RTP), global financial messaging standards such as ISO20022 and strategic movements towards open banking frameworks. Additionally, we assess the regulatory landscape that supports these technological shifts.

FinTech 2025+ serves as a crucial resource for stakeholders across the financial spectrum, providing insights into the opportunities for innovation and the strategies required to navigate the complexities of the modern financial world.

The report was launched at the Money 20/20 event in June 2024, the world’s leading, premium content, sales and networking platform for the global money ecosystem.

At Oxford Economics, we help you surface and quantify those contributions, turning anecdotes into evidence. Our Economic Impact Consulting team builds defensible models that capture direct, indirect, and induced impacts, plus catalytic effects that are often missed, such as supplier development, skills formation, productivity gains, and infrastructure upgrades. We translate your operational data into board and regulator ready insights on jobs, GVA, incomes, and tax across construction and operations, at city, provincial, and national levels. We also run forward looking scenarios, including AI driven load growth, power and carbon forecast, and policy shifts, so you can credibly articulate both today’s impact and tomorrow’s trajectory. The result is a clear country level value story that strengthens stakeholder trust, supports siting and incentives, and helps you scale with confidence.
