Abstract Abstract:<br/>Egypt is still lagging with financial inclusion and serving the majority of its unbanked, <br/>underbanked, marginalized, and its most vulnerable population. This is despite the great <br/>efforts done by the Central bank of Egypt, establishing the first Fintech hub, creating the <br/>first regulatory sandbox, and starting an EGP 1 billion fund for Fintech innovations and <br/>startups development. Fintech adoption rate is still falling behind peer countries in the <br/>region. Using business analysis tools together with field research, this research attempts to <br/>set guidelines and strategies for spreading and enhancing the application of Fintech in <br/>Egypt. <br/>The study indicates that adapting advanced emerging technologies such as blockchain, <br/>crypto, AI, Big data, IOTs, attracting highly overseas skilled talents as well as nurturing <br/>home grown ones are important factors for the proper implementation of Fintech in Egypt. <br/>It also identifies the pain points and customer needs, working on developing incentives for <br/>its adoption. Moreover, this research identifies the extreme importance of the governmental <br/>support and favorable policies towards building the ecosystems that are essential for the <br/>growth of the Fintech Industry. <br/>This research reveals that high level of transparency, 24/7 availability, ease of use and cost <br/>of service are the top drivers for Egyptians to switch to Fintech. Age impacts the probability <br/>of Fintech adoption, as younger adults are more willing to use online financial services. <br/>While the level of financial literacy, Education level and Income does not have significant <br/>influence on Fintech adoption in Egypt.
