Introduction
'Fintech', or financial technology, is a 21st-century buzzword. Cryptocurrency and blockchain attract much of the attention in fintech with claims that they'll revolutionize our financial system.
But equally important is the incremental changes that improve on existing financial infrastructure instead of remaking the entire system.

Covering digital wallets, credit card innovation, and fintech in developing markets such as India and Kenya, the course delves in-depth into how technology is enhancing our existing payments infrastructure.
