V-Con is Stockhead\u2019s investing focused video conference series, bringing you expert insights, panel discussions and presentations from leading analysts, listed small caps and industry players. This v-con is sponsored by Clee Capital.<\/p>\n

This latest video conference focuses on\u00a0ASX-listed fintech stocks and the outlook for the sector more broadly.<\/p>\n

Until recently, fintech was considered a nascent industry that was largely the domain of early-stage startups.<\/p>\n

Fast forward a few years, and the ASX is now home to a legion of fintech companies spanning multiple sub-sectors.<\/p>\n

By now, most investors are familiar with BNPL (buy now, pay later), which comprises a cohort of stocks that have generated explosive returns for investors.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, listed fintechs are competing for market share in adjacent sectors such as B2B payments, consumer finance and financial services.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s all taking place with a buffer from various post-COVID tailwinds, such as the accelerated rise of ecommerce and the ongoing digitisation of payments.<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s still early days, but the potential size of the addressable markets are huge. At the same time, investors are assessing whether valuations of some stocks have already run too hot.<\/p>\n

To break it all down, Stockhead caught up with leading fintech investor Dean Fergie from Cyan Investment Management to get his views on the outlook.<\/p>\n

We also spoke with six listed fintech small caps who provided key insights on their business strategies and growth plans.<\/p>\n
