Regulation Banks are highly regulated as they are connected to personal wealth and well- being FinTechs offer nearly same services, but are not regulated Blessing for FinTechs - Nightmare for consumers? Regulatory framework important -> committee going to be set up soon RegTechs could help and improve supervision?
Conclusion Contrast in China: Fast growing economy and slowly financial system reforms Government supports FinTechs to fill the supply gap of financial services (rural area & SMEs) It‘s on the government/supervisors to ensure that FinTechs will be a blessing, not a nightmare, for the Chinese population -> supervision will be a major task
