Even if you’ve just worked in fintech for a year, you know that some trends in the industry seem to rise and fall more quickly than back-to-school fashion, while others have never faded out.

We compiled the word-cloud below based on the themes we’ll see at FinovateFall in New York on 16/17 September. This year’s show promises a wide range of topics:

While none of this year’s themes are technically new, almost all of them have shifted since FinovateFall last year. Trends that have spiked since last year include:

• Natural language intelligence
• Digital currency
• Big data

Not surprisingly, two trends we usually see, mobility and security, appear most frequently. With both the spike in popularity and capability of mobile devices, and the increased need for security as hackers become more advanced, we don’t expect these trends to fade any time soon.
