To FinTech and Beyond
Open accessAbstract
FinTech is about the introduction of new technologies into the financial sector, and it is now revolutionizing the financial industry. In 2017, when research in this area was not active in the academic community in finance, the editorial team of the Review of Financial Studies decided to launch a competition among scholars to develop research proposals focused on this topic. This special issue is the final outcome of this process. In this introductory article, we describe the recent FinTech phenomenon and the novel editorial protocol employed for this special issue following a Registered Reports format. We discuss what we learned from the submitted proposals about the field of FinTech and what proposals we selected to be completed and ultimately come out in this special issue. We also provide several observations that can hopefully help guide research in the emerging area of FinTech in the future.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
