Abstract
The evolution of information and communication technology (ICT) affects all areas of activity including the financial industry. Indeed, it leads to rapid development of innovative and modern financial services, namely financial technology (Fintech). The latter is not well defined in the literature. This descriptive chapter aims to propose a comprehension of the Fintech concept based on three interpretations: Fintech as financial services relying on digital technologies, Fintech as startups and IT companies, and Fintech as an industry.

The latter is mainly composed-of Central Bank of Tunisia, fintech startups (financing, payments, loyalty program, blockchain and cryptocurrencies, exchange services and insurance, and technology, IT, and infrastructure), technology developers, traditional financial institutions, and financial customers.
