Even though financial technology (FinTech) has become one of the essential financial sector development strategies of many countries around the world in recent years, previous studies have analyzed the influence of financial growth from different aspects, but there are few works of literature devoted to the impact of FinTech on the financial sector and economic progress together. Fintech’s innovative banking and financial products are in high demand due to its uniqueness, cost efficiency, and user-friendly nature. This has caused disruption in traditional banking and finance sector of the economy. The question of whether the financial sector and the economy would not suffer from the incursions of FinTech, is not unreasonable. Using a review methodology, this paper finds that, Fintech has potential to influence the realization of increase in financial development and economic growth, only when appropriate regulation is put in place. Important policy implications and future directions are discussed accordingly.
