The emergence of financial technology (FinTech)-related products is
causing major disruptions in financial services that enable
financial solutions and innovative business models resulting in the
fusion of finance and smart mobile technology. As ASEAN is
undergoing a paradigm shift from government-to-government (G2G) to
community-to-community (C2C) relationships with the emphasis on
integration and collaboration, the adoption of FinTech and its

Technology and Disruptive Innovation in ASEAN provides an
assortment of innovative research that explores the recent FinTech
initiative in ASEAN with respect to its process, strategies,
challenges, and outcomes and highlights new business models,
products, and services that affect financial markets and
institutions and the provision of financial services. While
highlighting topics including blockchain technology, cloud
computing, and mobile banking, this book is ideally designed for
business executives, managers, entrepreneurs, financial and banking
practitioners, policymakers, academicians, students, professionals,
and researchers.
