The 3rd annual WealthTech100 list announces the tech companies transforming the global investment and banking industries

MyVest has been named to the 3rd Annual WealthTech100 list. The 2021 WealthTech100 was launched by specialist research firm FinTech Global. The prestigious list recognizes the world’s most innovative tech solution providers addressing the digital transformation challenges and opportunities faced by asset managers, private banks, and financial advisors.

The WealthTech industry has grown dramatically over the last four years as new digital services to manage personal finances, access investment markets, and provide financial advice are replacing traditional industry models. Total funding to the sector has more than tripled since 2016 from $2.8bn to $9.3bn at the end of 2020, according to figures published by FinTech Global.

As a result, this year’s process to identify the leading 100 companies in the WealthTech space was more competitive than ever. A panel of analysts and industry experts voted from a list of over 1,000 businesses. The finalists were awarded a place on the list for their innovative use of technology to solve a significant industry problem, or to generate cost savings or efficiency improvements across the investment value chain.

FinTech Global director Richard Sachar said, “Established banks and investment firms need to be aware of the latest innovations to remain competitive in the current market, which is heavily focused on digital distribution and increased use of customer data, and even more so post Covid-19. The WealthTech100 list helps senior management filter through all the vendors in the market by highlighting the leading companies in sectors such as client acquisition, financial planning, portfolio management, and digital brokerage.”
