    About the Course

    The FinTech revolution is rapidly transforming the financial industry. The use of digital technologies is the norm, and together with regulatory
    and market changes it is creating a revolution. After completion of the module, you'll be able to: describe the changes that influence the
    financial sector, understand the complexity of the payment infrastructure, identify and explain the key payment instruments and how they
    function, understand the types of money that exits, and recognize changes in the regulatory frameworks and how they inhibit or promote
    innovation. To begin, I recommend taking a few minutes to explore the course site. A good place to start is the navigation ba...

    The assessments were excellent. Initially, I did have hesitation in getting started, but got hooked to the assessments. Thank you to Kavya and Steve, our Program Managers who encouraged us everyday.

    Too many broken links. And an unsolvable assessment quiz in Week 4 assessment. Many users are facing the same issue and the developer has provided no response.

    This seems to have been an utter waste of time. I could have opted for other courses in the same field of study.

    There is no negative stars for me to provide. Else I would've.

    Please fix the errors for other users who have paid for this course and require the certificate.

    Two stars for the first 2 modules which were quite valuable. The unfortunate instructional design on the quizzes was tolerable because the content was good. Mods 3 and 4 were not so good. They were out of date and, in some cases, links were broken. The last quiz is horrible. It took me so many times to pass it because the questions are super specific on readings that might not exist any more. There is no room for critical thought in the testing mechanism. It's quite like solving a riddle without all the pieces. If I didn't want the course cert, I wouldn't have gone through the effort of taking the last quiz over until I got it right. I'm still stumped about the correct answers for questions #5 and #6.

    The material is largely links to wikipedia and industry reports which by now are aged. I have been reading more recent stuff from my linked in groups. The quizzes are poorly developed and there is no real industry interviews or unique content which for me brings a course to life and provides value added to just reading on the internet.

    This course is not well made. The links are mostly just wiki pages and if not, are broken anyway. The quizes are very specific and the answers are sometimes wrong; the last one was almost impossible to pass. There is no communication on the forum from the course moderators with regards to any issues you may have. There are also many spelling and grammatical errors, which can make things hard to understand. I only gave this couse 2 stars because the videos are alright. I would say do not do this course, especially if you are paying money.

    This one was a big disappointment after the previous one. The material is mostly links to wikipedia and industry reports which by now are aged, or even non-existant. The quizzes are poorly developed, provide contradictory corrections, and there is no "real life" examples. The lectures are all read in the moment which makes the speaker sound weird and not clear when presenting points. The course would be much much better if they took a few minutes to review the stuff they upload and what they say.

    the methodology with which the subjects are taught is boring. The topics are not taught at an interesting depth level, and there are many topics that are repeated again and again

    The course is not up to dated. The resources provided for reading was based on wikipedia what in my opinion is not a good source, in several occasions the links for Youtube videos was not working due the content could not be found or were removed. The links for newspaper we should subscribe in order to read the article. In my opinion, the course was very poor and obsolete. I'm surprise with the platform, why they are not verifying or check the quality of this courses. Very disappointed!

    There were many problems with this course, including multiple missing links, incomplete and incorrect information on the subject matter, and multiple incorrect practice quiz and final quiz answers and/or technical glitches. Read the discussion forum over the past three years, and you will discover that many students agree with me. I passed the course, but my grade was lower than it should have been because of those technical issues. I'm dismayed that Coursera would allow this course to be included on its website.

    There are so many issues with this course. Missing/broken links, links to outdated articles, articles that you must pay for to read, typos, and practice quizzes that are nearly impossible to answer, because you don't have the needed readings. The readings that you can access are links to Wikipedia.

    This is one of the worst courses I have ever taken. Some of the reading materials being provided are either doesn't exist anymore or need to pay to access. Besides that, the free text answers are returning wrong even if I put the 100% correct answer as the trainer explained.

    A wide range of most important topics in banking and online payment platforms have been narrated in a very simple manner, which anyone even without work experience in a bank can understand clearly and apply the knowledge in the work place both to set strategy to combat the fort of banking portfolio as well as devise various customer-centric offerings. A fantastic course in deed. My heartfelt gratitude to everyone related to its development.

    A nice introduction to the fast-changing landscape and direction of Fintech in the last few years that made me go "Oh yeah, that's why!". Not too overwhelming, "snack-sized" and easy to understand. Appreciate the gradual flow of information with quizzes and assessments to test my understanding of the course.

    Course is comprehensive, strong foundations for entrepreneurs searching for FinTech opportunities. Enjoy the course structure, brief class, lots of readings, references. As an opportunity, the course could recommend more reading either articles or books in order to get a deeper knowledge from the argument.
