After the size of the Swiss FinTech industry, measured in terms of the number of active Swiss FinTech companies, increased year on year in the past, a decline was recorded for the first time in 2021. At the end of 2021, Switzerland was home to 384 FinTech companies, which corresponds to a decline of 21 companies compared to the previous year. Despite this seemingly negative development, there are also positive trends, such as the record high in venture capital activity. All these developments, whether positive or negative, should be closely followed by the Swiss financial centre, which is one of the global market leaders, because the FinTech industry, which can be seen as the digital spearhead of banking, can make a positive contribution to maintaining the competitiveness of the entire financial sector. However, this will only succeed if the framework conditions for the corresponding companies are favourable.
