Welcome to the Q2’17 edition of KPMG’s the Pulse of Fintech, a report
highlighting the key trends and issues impacting the fintechmarket this
quarter, both globally and in key regions around the world.
Globally, the fintechmarket made a strong rebound in Q2’17, with
total investment more than doubling on a quarter-over-quarter basis
to more than USD $8.4 billion. Large increases in private equity
(PE) funding and M&A funding propelled the increase, while the
amount of venture capital (VC) investment held relatively steady.
Business-to-business (B2B) related fintechinvestments gained
prominence during the quarter, prompted by growing recognition
that many traditional financial institutions and insurance companies
need to reduce their cost base. This has led to an increase in
corporate interest in technologies that can enable more efficient
back office functions, such as artificial intelligence (AI), robotics,
regtech, data & analytics and cloud services. Blockchainalso
remained a strong area for investment, expanding its reach well
beyond banking and into potential applications for insurance, health
and government.
The Americas dominated fintechinvestment during Q2, primarily
the result of the $3.6 billion buyout of Canada-based DH Corp.
Excluding this outlier deal, it was clear that the US and Europe
drove the vast majority of fintechinvestment, with both regions
seeing $2 billion in investment. Asia, meanwhile, saw relatively
even investment quarter over quarter, held back only by a lack of
mega-deals. This could change rapidly over the next few quarters
as more activity is expected, particularly from large tech giants and
payments companies focused on international expansion.
