Abstract
We analyze fintechs and their impact on the traditional financial system from a functional perspective. Following the approach suggested by Merton (1995) [A Functional Perspective of Financial Intermediation, Financial Management 24(2), 23–41], we show how the six core functions of financial intermediation are affected by the technological developments. This analysis provides a new perspective on the future of financial services and their regulation.
