The Fintech industry in Israel is one of the most developed markets in the world. Hundreds of local startups are developing new technologies to facilitate payment processes, reduce fraud, manage capital and user savings, promote financial education and planning, and develop virtual currencies. Like other tech sectors in Israel, the country's fintech sector is a by-product of innovations from other fields, primarily cybersecurity.
Due to the advanced development of Israeli innovation in the industry, in recent years, international financial institutions - including Citibank and Barclays - entered Israel to identify and cooperate with fintech startups in the local market. Today Israel has more than 500 companies in the Fintech sector and 14 multinational R&D centers.
