Abstract
This study examines the relationship between fintech credit growth and traditional banking sector profitability. It finds a robust negative relationship between the two, suggesting that a rise of alternative credit lines could rival traditional banking and even lead to subdued bank profitability. The negative relationship is stronger for banking sectors that are more concentrated and operate with higher interest margins. These results prompt strategic considerations for banks, such as partnerships and innovation.
