“FinTech 2.0 happened 3 years ago. It’s time for FinTech 3.0, where we see the move to much higher level to automation and ML getting used in both risk assessment and overall customer management. I see a large shift from just focusing on predictive models to more cognitive models emerging from Fintechs to understand consumers better and help evolve to business model.”, said Akshay Mehrotra, Co-Founder & CEO, EarlySalary.com
The event provided energetic discussions and ideation around common industry challenges and best practices in defining realistic business models, identifying regulatory requirements, optimizing human resource utilization as well as sourcing and integrating technologies.
