We and the UK regulators are taking the necessary steps to ensure that Financial Services firms are prepared for the unlikely event of the UK leaving the EU without a deal. While there are no plans to provide financial support for UK Fintech companies in this instance, they will continue to benefit from existing government programmes, including a 10-year action plan intended to unlock over £20 billion of investment to finance growth in innovative firms that was announced at Autumn Budget in 2017.</p> more like this

That is why the government has delivered against all of the commitments made in the Fintech Sector Strategy, which was launched last year.</p><p> </p><p>The government announced at Mansion House 2019 that HM Treasury would launch a review into the payments landscape, which looks to ensure that regulation and infrastructure is able to keep pace with new payments models. The government also announced that it would explore building on the success of Open Banking by developing an agenda for ‘Open Finance’, looking at ways to safely and securely share data across a wider range of financial services products. This will further revolutionise the sector and increase the ability of Fintech firms to compete with traditional financial services firms.</p> more like this
