Traditional vs Emergent FintechTraditional Emergent

Positioning

Market players generally perceived as facilitators which are large, incumbent technology vendors supporting the financial services sectorEg: Fiserv, SunGard, Infosys, First Data

Market players are disruptors and innovators by nature. They are disintermediating incumbent financial services or provide new technology solutions to service existing needsEg: Zopa, Fidor Bank, Transferwise

Infrastructure

Companies focus on support, maintenance and provision of existing infrastructure

Two operating models have merged of either utilising existing infrastructure which tends to be controlled by established players or by replacing them completely

This is a high risk strategy but provides high returns if successful

Revenue model

Operate under established revenue models that tend to use cost per transaction, percentage of assets or license fees

Emerging revenue models are broad and tend to function using different types of revenue streams.
