Summary/Abstract: Fintech embodies technological innovations in financial services. The scholarship in this area is fast-growing and correlates with a disruptive potential Fintech has for the financial ecosystem. European regulation is also keeping up with this phenomenon. A case in point is the recently adopted EU crowdfunding regulation which is part of the EU’s FinTech Action Plan and Capital Markets Union agenda. Its general goal is to promote financial development of European financial systems by enhancing alternative finance sources to bank lending and cross-border investments. On the one hand, the EU crowdfunding regulation aims to enhance scalability for crowdfunding platforms service providers across the European single market through a single EU crowdfunding licence.
