A thorough examination of the worldwide digital transformation of people's everyday monetary and financial relations driven by the emergence of FinTech How people pay, make savings and investments, buy insurance, and take on debt is undergoing digital transformation across the globe. This book argues that FinTech is a distinct form of intermediary and rentier capital that is radically reorganizing the routine social relations of money and finance. People are being configured by FinTech capital as users and data rather than as consumers, a phenomenon we increasingly take for granted in our everyday lives. Langley and Leyshon analyze the rise of FinTech capital through the intersecting processes of digital and financial capitalism that underpin it: platformization, datafication, monopolization, colonization, and capitalization. Platformization and datafication provide novel technologies and business models that reset the competitive coordinates and informational imperatives of monetary and financial intermediation. Monopolization and colonization dynamics reaffirm and renew institutional and geographical hierarchies and relations of plunder. And, all the while, FinTech has been sustained by huge volumes of investment from capitalization processes that are core to financial capitalism. Illustrated by case studies of the FinTech operations of specialist startups, banks, telcos, and BigTechs based in Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the United States, FinTech Capital will be of interest to social scientists of money, finance, and digital capitalism and all who want to understand this major transformation of contemporary economic life.
