The fast-growing adoption of financial innovation is rapidly changing the
value chain in financial services encompassing banking, insurance, asset
management, and capital markets. Such innovation is helping to
revolutionize payments, wealth advisory services (through robotic systems),
fundraising, and investment activities. The emerging financial
solutions are also rapidly being developed to help banks and other
financial firms deal with the complexities of regulatory compliance and
other operational issues. The emergence of blockchain technology and
cryptocurrencies have also altered the ways in which data can be stored
securely and anonymously (through distributed ledger systems). Ways in
which we view the role and functions of currencies have also changed by the
emergence of over 3000 digital currencies. Fincial innovation and
financial technology developments will create great opportunities but will
also pose new sources of risks to the banking sector.
Traditional bank business models are being reconfigured. Increased
competition and narrower profit margins from traditional banking (as well
as capital markets and insurance) areas will force existing players to
adopt new technologies, improve customer experience, and open up new
revenue streams to address these challenges.
In the light of these new developments, the proposed journal of European
Financial Management special issue aims to provide a timely and
comprehensive overview of the implications of financial innovation for
banks, businesses, and financial regulators.

 	The impact of financial innovation on bank business models
