Business news and analysis website Verdict – in association with GlobalData Financial Services – wants to champion the work women are doing in the sector and has identified the ten most influential female voices in fintech – known as femtech.

While there are femtech influencers throughout the world of fintech, from cryptocurrencies to corporate banking, six out of the ten most influential people in femtech on Twitter are based in the UK capital.

New York is a distant second with two of the biggest femtech influencers.

Despite different cities and countries around the world producing exciting new fintech companies the UK and the US dominate the list and that looks unlikely to change any time soon.

GlobalData’s head of banking and fintech, Kit Carson, said:

“It’s great to see so many influential femtech voices spread throughout the wider fintech industry.

“While there has been significant progress made to encourage women into financial services, nothing works better than seeing women make waves and succeed. Fintech embraces great ideas and solutions, and women have been just as instrumental as men in driving forward the ecosystem.

“London and New York are clearly still the centre of much of the world’s fintech activity and it will interesting to see how this changes over time as other fintech hubs develop.”
