Welcome to FinTech Monitor, Pryor Cashman's new blog that will provide legal commentary and resources for the rapidly developing financial technology industry.

In the last several years, global investment and development in financial technology have exploded. Revolutionary advances in digital technology coupled with innovation in financial services have created a dynamic new industry, which is now facing a complex regulatory environment and enforcement from both state and federal agencies in the U.S.

These legal developments will be significant for all players in the FinTech space - from traditional banks looking to create better, more conventient products and services for their clients, to entrepreneurs and start-ups venturing for the first time into the financial services sector.

Pryor Cashman's team of FinTech attorneys will offer insight and commentary on these complex legal issues, as the issues break. You can expect to find updates on everything from regulatory developments to enforcement actions, from virtual currency to mobile banking. Our bloggers will bring their considerable experience from working with both established and emerging FinTech clients to bear on new legal developments affecting the dynamic space.
