Abstract

The financial sector’s contribution to the transition to a sustainable economy is exacerbated by numerous challenges. The aim of this chapter is to demonstrate and discuss the significant role that fintech can play in fostering “sustainability in financing” and “financing of sustainability”. This overview outlines the present state of each technology, illustrates its potential to contribute to current challenges, and offers a variety of use cases. It follows all major fintech technologies, from automation, big data, AI, and DLT to quantum computing.
