If you want a bit of reading for the summer, here is a list of Fintech blogs I particularly like. This is totally biased and non-objective and I’m sure I missed many interesting blogs*.
Since Disruptive Finance and Fintech is my “night job” and not my “day job”, getting interesting and relevant information through Twitter and blogs is very important to me. The blogs I read are usually written by people with real insight (either in finance, technology or both), who are enthusiastic about innovation in finance, but also with a critical eye on the real benefits of disruption.
Without further ado, here is my list of favourite Fintech blogs in alphabetical order:
