Financial technology (fintech) and alternative investments (alts) are two of the most prevalent concepts to have emerged in financial services over recent years. This chapter will promote the view that the development and growth of fintech innovations, as well as regulatory technology (regtech), have been key catalysts for growth in this developing asset class. Resulting new investment opportunities have also evolved with new new-to-industry concepts and delivery asset allocation methods throughout an industry that is historically conservative, slow and hesitant to change.
The potential benefits from the utilisation of advances in technological tools and solutions can no longer be ignored. The fintech “boom” has also introduced opportunities for new regulatory oversight solutions and efficiencies in compliance and asset management. However, this growth can only be sustained and supported by the introduction and adoption of corresponding tools aligned to fostering innovation in regtech. For regulators, regtech and supervisory technology (suptech) engender more efficient oversight and investor acceptance of growing asset classes, including alts
