London has the largest FinTech industry in Europe with sizeable financial services clients, favourable regulation, and ample fintech funding. Amsterdam, Berlin, Paris, and Stockholm are notable. Dublin, Edinburgh, Helsinki, Tallinn and Vilnius are small but high-value centres, often with specialities in areas such as fund management, blockchain, and payments. Malta, Cyprus and others compete to become Europe’s leader in crypto assets.
Global fintech funding has trended down since 2021. In 2024, USD 33.7bn was raised in 3,580 deals. Median deal sizes increased to USD 4m, implying there is still funding for early and late-stage companies with growth prospects. Payments and Lending remain key segments, with Crypto Assets and AI rapidly gaining momentum. IPO and M&A activity remains subdued.
The fintech industry continuously evolves. AI-enablement continues, including anti-fraud, customer service, robotic process automation, and compliance. RegTech is growing segment due to the increase in the number and complexity of regulations. B2B focused fintechs that embed payments and credit into broader processes do well. Open Banking, Blockchain and WealthTech continue to grow, albeit at a more modest speed.
