Robo-advising is now a well-known topic appealing to modern portfolio theory. To some, online asset management and advisory platforms are to disrupt hedge funds and portfolio managers based on innovation and diversified clientele. Pre-IPO facilitators have emerged to enable investors to tap into share upsides before a business goes public. This session will put a spotlight on how capital market startups create an impact on conventional wisdom.

“Istanbul as an exciting and dynamic global city is well positioned to develop an also vibrant and successful FinTech ecosystem. I expect thousands of bright young entrepreneurs from Istanbul to create new and innovative financial services and to connect them globally. At ISTANBUL talks I would like to share with them ideas and inspirations from international FinTech hubs and ways to build bridges among the different places. My favorite topic is blockchain because of it highly disruptive nature and the ongoing challenge to develop viable and profitable use cases.”, Jochen mentioned to the organizers of the conference.
