CFO Mag Names 2019’s Top Fintech Companies

Technological disruption has had a big impact on businesses in the financial sector. Fintech solutions have changed the way financial institutions operate - and it seems that the revolution has just begun.

CFO Tech Outlook shared a similar sentiment when it published a list of the top 10 fintech solution providers of 2019. The magazine’s editorial board was joined by a panel of CTOs, CIOs, and analysts with the goal of recognizing the very best fintech solutions in the marketplace today. 

The team of experts pointed out that tech trends like blockchain, artificial intelligence, and biometric technology are bound to reach a whole new level of sophistication in the near future. That is why the next decade is expected to see disruption on a much larger scale, even without new emergent technologies.

These, according to CFO, are the fintech companies that are best at navigating the oceans of disruption today:
