Course Objective 金融科技是近年來新興的產業趨勢，影響的層面非常廣泛，不只是金融方面，更牽涉到新興科技與物聯網。本課程將從不同的角度分析金融科技的技術內容、應用領域及商業模式，並藉由國內外重要金融科技公司發展的經驗做一介紹，希望達到了解並運用此新興科技的目的。本課程內容包括:金融科技概論、金融科技商業模式、金融大數據、P2P 借貸、虛擬貨幣、雲端服務、第三方支付、群眾募資、區塊鏈、跨境電商、程式交易、機器人理財等主題。 FinTech includes two words: Finance and Technology. It is a new trend of industrial field. It has influences on lots of technical fields, not only finance, but also emerging technologies and IoT. This course will analyze FinTech from different angles, such as technology contents, application fields and business models. It also will utilize experiences of leading companies with FinTech to obtain decent knowledge of this new field. The contents of this course include introduction to financial technology, business models of financial technology, finance big data, P2P lending, virtual money, cloud services, third-party payment, crowd funding, blockchain, cross-border e-commerce, program trading, and robotic financial advisory etc.
