Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view|neutral point of view]], and should refer to a range of [[Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources|independent, reliable, published sources]], not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verifiability policy]] and the [[Wikipedia:Notability|notability]] of the subject can be established.

Hi Sarah, thanks for your input, I'm not sure what else I can do to amend this article as it already cites independent and respected publications. When writing the entry I based it on an existing wikipedia entry to ensure a neutral tone of voice. Any amendments must thus be really minor I hope? Mike

FinTech

[edit]

FinTech traditionally relates to financial technology, which is the conducting of financial services activities, with the end client/user being a financial institution. The term FinTech more recently has come to define the group of technology companies that are developing innovations and spear-heading change for the financial services industry.

History

[edit]

There is no agreed first reference to the term FinTech, but it was probably coined around the late 80's when the surge in electronic payment systems spread around the USA, UK, and Europe. Financial technology and the delivery methods of finance became a keyword at this point – especially since the Forex market was open 24hrs a day and required substantial knowledge of the FinTech systems available to allow trading.

Overview

[edit]

Examples of FinTech companies include PayPal which started off as a service provider for online website eBay. PayPal and electronic currency later became a staple for online shopping in the 21st century.

Europe

[edit]

In Europe, London has proved to be the hub for FinTech innovation with companies like Funding Circle, Azimo and Zopa becoming mainstream. The success of these companies has seen incubators such as Level 39 and FinTech Innovation Lab launch to develop new startups.

FinTech publishers

[edit]

There are a number of publishers which provides specialist reporting on FinTech including IntelligentHQ, Venturebeat, American Banker and Reuters.

Proposed deletion of Azimo

[edit]

The article Azimo has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. If you disagree and deprod this, please explain how it meets them on the talk page in the form of "This article meets criteria A and B because..." and ping me back. Thank you,

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Information icon Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 10:13, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
