3. THE MARKETS
3
LONDON
Silicon Roundabout
• The UK has a particularly good policy
environment for FinTech,
• Many Analysts attribute Britain’s No 1 Fintech
ranking to a deep talent pool, the strong
availability of capital for investment.
• Britain’s FinTech sector supports over 61,000
jobs and generates billions of pounds of
revenue for the UK’s economy.
SAN FRANCISCO
SiliconValley
• SiliconValley is the number one region in the
world when it comes to attracting investment:
56% of all global tech investment is made in
the United States and the majority of this in
the San Francisco region.
• The number of start-ups based in SiliconValley
is very impressive.The area boasts between
15,000 and 20,000 start-ups working in all
kinds of fields. In the Fintech sector there are
big players such as PayPal, Square and
LendingClub but there is also a huge pool of
promising start-ups which are looking to
improve, or even entirely transform the
banking experience..
NEWYORK
Silicon Alley
• Fintech investment in NewYork has grown at
more than twice the rate of SiliconValley.
• Unlike SiliconValley, NewYork offers proximity
to a huge potential customer base of financial
institutions and a vast existing financial
technology workforce, in addition to its
burgeoning venture ecosystem.This makes
the city a natural contender to be a world
leading FinTech capital, bringing new jobs and
capital to NewYork and helping to secure the
long-term competitiveness of the U.S.
financial services industry.
