<abstract displayLabel="Summary">The report analyzes the global evolution of the fintech sector during the first quarter of 2026, examining funding activity, mergers and acquisitions, initial public offerings, and the creation of unicorns. It presents trends across segments such as digital banking, payments, digital assets, lending, and wealth tech, as well as geographic comparisons by regions and countries. The study highlights the concentration of capital in more mature companies, the decline in the number of transactions, and the transformation of fintech firms into direct competitors of traditional financial institutions. It includes detailed metrics on investment volumes, deal sizes, development stages, and investor profiles</abstract>
