FinTech as a Game Changer: Overview of Research Frontiers
这篇编辑评论概述了金融科技在教学和研究中的技术、教学和管理问题，重点讨论了市场交易、人工智能和区块链在金融中的应用，并介绍了特刊中的文章，旨在激发信息系统和金融领域的未来研究。
Technologies have spawned finance innovations since the early days of computer applications in businesses, most recently reaching the stage of disruptive innovations, such as mobile payments, cryptocurrencies, and digitization of business assets. This has led to the emerging field called financial technology or simply FinTech. In this editorial review, we first provide an overview on relevant technological, pedagogical, and managerial issues pertaining to FinTech teaching and research, with a focus on market trading, artificial intelligence, and blockchain in finance. And then we introduce the articles appearing in this special section. We hope that our discussions of potential research directions and topics in FinTech will stimulate future research in the fields of information systems and finance toward making their unique marks in the FinTech evolution and the associated business and societal innovations.
