KPMG has launched a call-out for the top fintech companies from around the world for its new Fintech 100 list.
The chosen innovators will get free KPMG services and free membership of the Matchi fintech financing service, with the top ten emerging innovators flown to pitch at the consultancy firm’s FinTech Summit in London in February.
The hunt, which will identify 50 more established firms and 50 “emerging stars”, has been launched in association with Australian fintech investor and accelerator H2 Ventures.
The deadline for entries or nominations is 31 October and the list will be unveiled during a series of parallel events in Sydney, London, Hong Kong, San Francisco and Tel Aviv in November.
The programme expands on KPMG’s 50 Best Fintech Innovators of 2014 list, which was led by Wealthfront, Kabbage, Motif Investing, Klarna and Square.
Ian Pollari, KPMG’s global co-lead of the company’s fintech practice, said: “Fintech is rapidly evolving and the Fintech 100 celebrates the most dynamic companies in the industry. These startups are pushing the frontier of new products, services, technology, and business models in financial services.”
