Abstract
Technological development has played an integral role in the transformation and progress of the financial sector. Reductions in time, costs, efficiency, are some of the opportunities that the Fintech sector stimยญulates. In this paper we will examine the advantages of technology integraยญtion in finance and FinTechโs interaction with other sectors such as banking but also the risks it carries. We will analyze Fintech implementation in Albaยญnia market and the challenges faced for development.
If we take into consideration how quickly the economic, social, cultural and natural conditions are changing, of course finding, applying and developยญing new alternatives is the right solution. FinTech is therefore seen as the fuยญture of the financial sector.
In conclusion, Albania as a developing economy and unknown with new technologies, regardless of all the difficulties, is open to innovations and can be seen as a new market for the development of FinTechs.
