Abstract
The term Fintech is a new term that is being used frequently now in the business and banking sector, which translates to financial technology. These technologies are being utilized and applied in the financial services sector and their intervention in mobile payments which includes money transfers, loans, fundraising, asset, and property management.
Several papers have been published to report the latest accomplishments and noted challenges faced in the financial technology field from different perspectives to address this need. Hence, a bibliometric study would be required to conduct a detailed examination of the current body of knowledge in financial technology research. To investigate the influence of financial technology on the financial industry, this paper searched a list of 764 research papers that were published between the period of 2015 and 2022. The Web Science (WoS), literature reviews, conducted systematic scientific, providing research for future research of the analysis results of co-citation and co-cited sources, disciplines, and keywords indicated a noted increase in the field publishing industry which has developed rapidly in recent years in numerous countries and interdisciplinary research.
Additionally, institutions in the United States, China, and British are adept at hosting such multidisciplinary work. Moreover, different keyword kinds show significant interactions in the visualization: (a) fintech, (b) blockchain and innovation, (c) performance impact, (d) information, and (e) financial inclusion.
