Introduction.
This is a critical time for those working in the financial services industry. The
unprecedented growth of technological innovation has fundamentally changed the way
businesses do business, transfer money, and conduct everyday financial transactions. The
financial technology sector has become one of the most supported sectors by decision-makers
around the world today. With this important sector having the potential to drive technological
revolution, driving prosperity and growth through innovation and efficiency, investment in the
sector is expected to reach $15 billion by 2022. Creating more advanced financial technologies
to meet the evolving needs of customers remains a pressing issue.
Any country must create an environment that supports startups and entrepreneurship to
enable the growth and development of new industries. Because properly organized business
systems help create global hubs for technology startups.
One of the key components of creating a positive environment is to build an ecosystem
and develop a regulatory framework that simplifies the process of doing business in a country
or region. In this regard, some countries are taking the lead in encouraging the development of
Fintech startups.
Literature review.
This section reviews the current literature on the transformation of Fintech and banking
services and their interaction. Research shows that the term “
Fintech
” refers to solutions that
combine traditional financial services and modern innovative technologies (Dorfleitner,
Hornuf, & 2017; Yusuf, 2021). Fintech companies, usually organized in the form of startups and
focused on providing customers with fast, convenient and affordable services, serve to increase
competitiveness against traditional players in the banking sector (Gomber, Peter, 2018). At the
same time, banks are focusing on Fintech investments to compete with new technologies and
competitors (Claessens, 2009). The literature also extensively discusses the impact of economic
intelligence and information management systems on organizational performance. They argue
that organizations need to rely on effective information sharing and management systems to
increase competitiveness in an information and knowledge-based economy (Ferrini, Caterina
2018). Based on this literature, the role of Fintech in banking reform, customer-centric
innovation, and the importance of the regulatory environment are highlighted.

Methodology.
This study uses a qualitative analysis approach and examines the transformation of
Fintech and banking services through secondary data analysis. The study consists of the
following stages:
Source Selection
–
Materials were collected based on secondary data from academic
journals, research articles, editorials, official documents , and websites. These sources include
those mentioned in the literature review above.
Data Analysis
–
The collected data was analyzed in terms of key concepts, methods, and
best practices related to the topic. The study focused on banking services, innovative
approaches of Fintech companies, customer behavior, and the role of the regulatory
environment.
Comparison and Synthesis
–
Data synthesis was performed to compare Fintech solutions
with traditional banking services, determine their effectiveness and competitiveness in the
market.
Development of recommendations
–
Based on the results of the study, recommendations
were developed to strengthen cooperation between banks and Fintech companies and reform
the system.
Through this methodological approach, the study aims to reach complete and thorough
conclusions about the transformation of banking services and the role of Fintech in improving
their quality.
Analysis and results.
The
term “
Fintech
” refers to companies or individuals that combine financial services
(Dorfleitner, Hornuf, 2017) and modern innovative technologies. Financial technology is
closely related to information and communication technology, and organizations in this field
use information and communication technology to provide financial services more efficiently
and at lower costs.
The term Fintech refers to any institution operating in this field that aims to advance
financial services by offering innovative technological solutions to its customers. Typically, this
field is developed by startup companies, which try to capture market share from traditional
players in the financial services industry (Gomber, Peter, et al. 2018) investing in Fintech to
compete with new entrants
–
that is, companies that are not primarily from the banking and
financial sector. In this context, the main objectives of the economic intelligence process can be
discussed. Economic intelligence is the process of exchanging information between
organizations, based mainly on information technology. However, there are some sectors
where, due to the lower level of competition and commercial risk, the economic intelligence
process is not limited to studying competitors or over-protecting information systems.
Therefore, the main objectives of economic intelligence should also extend to the
management system. Organizations today are developing in an information and knowledge-
based economy, and their success depends on their ability to disseminate the information they
collect and produce through formal and informal channels. Therefore, the economic efficiency
of organizations depends on the methods by which they manage information (Ferrini, 2018).
How FinTech Institutions Work
Financial technology institutions operate through the following key aspects:
Using innovative technologies, in particular through mobile phones, computers or digital
devices connected to the Internet and other communication networks, to provide end
customers with richer or cheaper products and services than traditional operators;
Changes in customer behavior (mobile communications, geotagging in social networks),
as well as the creation of an appropriate legal and regulatory environment;
Building good cooperation and relationships with banks;

Introducing new innovations in the field of (Leong, and other, 2018) financial and banking
services.
As pointed out by Shu Zhang (2020), financial technology companies have the following
characteristics:
Accessibility to all users
–
In traditional financial services, customers are mainly judged
based on whether they have large assets or high income. Therefore, these services are only
targeted at certain social groups. Fintech companies, on the other hand, are reaching all social
groups and expanding their capabilities through product redesign or collaboration for low-
income customers.
Flexibility and convenience
–
Fintech startups offer a variety of payment plans to suit
customers’ needs, including the ability to make daily, weekly, or monthly payments for clean
energy and other products.
Speed
–
The ability to analyze large amounts of data allows fintech companies to provide
fast service. Using big data, algorithms, and machine learning technologies, transactions can be
completed in minutes. In contrast, traditional insurance companies and lending institutions can
take days to approve an insurance policy or issue a loan (Agarwal, and other, 2020).
This approach allows for improvements in products and services and the provision of
personalized services to customers. Powerful analytics tools enable business owners to make
better decisions and seize new opportunities.
- Promoting financial inclusion
–
contributing to economic growth and diversification of
economic activity through innovations that help provide financial services to segments of the
population that do not interact with the banking system.
Expanding alternative sources of financing for small and medium-sized businesses -
financial technologies allow businesses with limited access to traditional bank loans to provide
new financial instruments.
Ensuring financial stability - serves to strengthen regulatory requirements and risk
management systems through the use of technology.
Facilitating foreign trade and remittances
–
by providing mechanisms for fast, efficient,
and affordable cross-border remittances.
- The use of electronic payment systems - helps to increase the efficiency of government
operations. At the same time, it requires additional reforms to address gaps in appropriate
regulation, consumer protection (Zamar, González, 2020), and information security.
Global investment in fintech has grown rapidly over the past five years and is expected to
continue to grow significantly in the future. Between 2012 and 2015, fintech investment
increased more than tenfold . However, global investment declined in 2016 due to mergers and
acquisitions of fintech companies in the United States. However, growth continued in other
regions, including the Middle East and North Africa, and investment rebounded significantly in
the first half of 2017.
The results of the study show that Fintech is a sector that brings significant innovative
solutions to the traditional financial services sector, which plays a significant role in ensuring
the transformation of banking services. Fintech companies offer customer-oriented, fast and
convenient products and services, which help to increase the competitiveness of banks. At the
same time, the rapid growth of Fintech investments, the introduction of innovative technologies
and the improvement of the regulatory environment strengthen the future prospects for
cooperation between banks and Fintech companies. Banks are expected to effectively use
Fintech solutions to fight against new competitors, contribute to financial inclusion and
economic growth. The study emphasizes that innovations in the field of financial technologies
are one of the key factors in modernizing banking services and providing quality services to
customers.

Conclusion.
The transformation of banking services and the development of financial technologies are
becoming an integral part of the modern financial system. The rapid development of Fintech
technologies is having a strong impact on traditional banking systems, forcing them to reshape
their operations based on innovative approaches. This process allows banks to improve the
quality of service, carry out fast and convenient financial transactions, and provide customized
services to customers.
The results of the study show that cooperation between Fintech companies and banks is
beneficial for both parties, increasing competitiveness and further popularizing financial
services. Traditional banking systems will be able to quickly meet the demands and needs of
customers by adapting to new technologies. At the same time, Fintech startups can cover
different segments of the financial market and increase the level of service through innovative
products.
The study also confirms that the development of Fintech depends on the legal and
regulatory environment. Support for financial technologies by states and strengthening their
legal framework will have a positive impact on the sustainable development of the industry.
In the future, Fintech technologies are expected to develop further, leading to the growth
of areas such as digital payments, blockchain, artificial intelligence and big data analytics. One
of the most important tasks for banks and Fintech companies will be to introduce innovative
solutions, meet customer demand and increase the inclusiveness of financial services.
