credit-china-fintechChina is arguably the largest Fintech market in the world. The sector has benefited by a government dependent on internet finance to fill economic voids left by traditional state-controlled banks. The emerging middle class largely manages finance on mobile devices and thousands of Fintech firms have emerged to service the enormous population.

Credit China Fintech said that Asia is now transforming into the era of Fintech and China has become “the” international hub of Fintech. The  company stated that China has outperformed other Asian markets in the Fintech industry in terms of its development pace, complexity and scale, which makes China the market leader in this area.

Siting  Fintech investment from July 2015 to June 2016, Credit China Fintech said investments had “surged” to USD $8.8 billion. This was an increase of 252% from 2010 – topping the global market in comparison to the US.  Credit China Fintech believes that Fintech remains in its infancy and will thus generate solid returns on investment in coming years.sheng-jia
