Introduction to FinTech using Excel
This book serves as a bridge, leveraging the familiarity of Excel and the power of R to make FinTech accessible to all. Financial Technology (FinTech) has revolutionized areas once dominated by traditional finance. However, the need to learn a programming language often creates a barrier for many learners. Excel-based learning builds confidence with tools that are already familiar to advanced students, while minimal R programming is required—no prior R skills needed, just two simple lines of code. Hidden functions unlock powerful FinTech capabilities with ease. With this book, students can learn to generate public and private keys effortlessly,create a Hash for any given phrase, use the Merkle Tree to combine 100 transactions into a block's Hash, develop QR codes for websites or public keys, verify (x,y) values on the Elliptic curve for cryptography, and run models for both Unsupervised and Supervised Learning. The book includes definitions, exercises, and solutions for students to develop the skills to navigate and excel in the world of FinTech.

This paper examines how the growing presence of FinTech firms affects the performance of traditional financial institutions. The findings point to a negative impact on profitability, primarily due to a reduction in interest income and a rise in operational costs. Although established financial institutions have tried to diversify their revenue streams, these efforts have proven inadequate to offset the losses associated with increased competition from FinTech firms. Our study also reveals that various FinTech business models, such as Peer-to-Peer (P2P) lending and Balance Sheet lending, have varying effects on financial institutions. Cooperative banks experience more significant profit deterioration under both models, whereas (larger) commercial banks appear to benefit from partnerships with P2P platforms, as evidenced by an increase in non-interest income. Furthermore, the findings suggest that FinTech presence has a disproportionately larger adverse effect on banks in countries with more competitive, profitable, and developed financial systems. Interestingly, however, traditional financial institutions in countries with stronger regulatory frameworks appear to benefit from the expanding influence of FinTech firms.
