As pioneers in fintech lending, Filia and Guerini have helped drive the development of this multi-billion dollar industry. Their new book tells the story of this emerging asset class, its intersection with the rise of decentralised finance and the evolution this industry may experience over the coming decades.
Laurence Fletcher, Deputy Markets News Editor at the Financial Times, says the book is a vital reading for anyone interested in the evolution of finance: “Filia and Guerini’s book tells the definitive story of digital lending and fintech. It is essential reading for anyone trying to understand the huge changes taking place and the opportunities that will arise.”
In recent years, banks have effectively pulled up the drawbridge on their traditional banking activities, including lending to SMEs and consumers, with devastating social consequences. The Future of Finance chronicles how fintech is rapidly emerging to fill this gap, allowing businesses to manage and sell innovative products, while helping to democratise wealth creation and access to finance for women and traditionally underserved minority groups.
