Superannuation and Financial Services Industry, the introduction of Consumer Data Rights and the expansion of the Australian regulatory sandbox, are creating opportunities and demand for fintechs.

Established financial institutions are rapidly embracing the disruptive nature of fintech, creating partnerships with emerging new fintech firms to improve efficiencies, reduce risk and respond to customer demand.
