Current activities

First year PhD student in Cranfield SoM, interested in the field of Financial Technology Innovation and would like to examine the majority of its components (peer-to-peer lending, online banking, crowdfunding, etc) and its effects on banking industry within the European Union. Considered as alternative finance, fintech is attracting more attention widely as well as investors. however, there is an important gap between the growth of fintech innovations and investment and the growth of the relevant Academic literature. Therefore, researches including myself should give additional importance to this topic. As fintech has became one of the component of national GDP.
