Ireland’s fintech sector a breeding ground for innovation
Ireland has a "unique combination of talented people with strong technology and finance backgrounds" says Ian Nelson, KPMG's head of financial services and regulatory.
The presence of a vibrant international financial services sector in proximity to world leading global technology companies in Dublin’s Silicon Docks district created an ideal breeding ground for the development of a highly innovative native fintech sector.
Irish fintech companies count several unicorns — billion dollar start-ups — among their number and are successfully delivering leading-edge digital solutions to customers around the world in a range of key areas including payments, regulatory compliance, insurance, asset management, credit, sustainable finance and much else besides.
