MGF 687LEC - Financial Technology (FinTech) Lab

Many aspects of finance require an intermediary (middleman) to allow the exchange of assets and information. Financial intermediation has evolved from early systems of banking to our current system of financial intermediaries, where firms facilitate payment/transactions, capital fundraising, provide advice and financial management services. Technology is changing the way financial intermediaries deliver all of these services. Because of the hybrid nature of this area (Finance and Information Systems), it is increasingly important that finance students understand information system issues/limitations and vice versa.
