The course will commence in May and will be certified by IIM-C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The programme helps participants learn about financial technologies and its increasingly disruptive impact on the banking and financial ecosystem. In addition, it will prepare them to exploit the immense potential of FinTech to design and drive new product strategies for their organisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA vast majority of firms in the banking and financial sector believe that the lack of adequate FinTech talent is an existential threat to their future.

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology reported a total of 2.45 billion digital payments in August 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NASSCOM estimates Indian FinTech will double in size every three years while Gartner predicts that within a decade, 80 per cent of financial firms will lose their relevance because of the threats posed by new FinTech advancements, unforeseen competition, and altered customer preferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sources \u2013&nbsp; &nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.business-standard.com\/article\/education\/iim-calcutta-rolls-out-new-6-month-fintech-and-blockchain-course-119022600772_1.html\">Business Standard<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/education\/iim-calcutta-launched-courses-in-fintech-financial-blockchain-5601422\/\">The Indian Express<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/news.yahoo.com\/indian-institute-rolls-advanced-program-220500782.html\">Yahoo!
