Uncle Sam to Talk About FinTech!
Government influence almost always includes regulation, and this is no exception. The congressional digerati are expected to discuss ways in which “developing technology and public policy can work together on such topics as privacy, data protection, mobile technology, online small business lending, the convergence of traditional and new players, and helping the under-served.”
The Backstory…
Earlier this month, Electronics Transactions Association (ETC) hosted a large group of payments and technology executives to a Fly In meeting with policymakers on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.
Furthermore, those in attendance engaged in direct discussion about probable contingencies to “advance a regulatory environment which supports innovation–and yet sort out any unintended consequences of new regulation or legislation that may stifle innovations fueling economic growth.”
“Congressman Patrick McHenry, the Chief Deputy Whip of the House, announced new legislation designed to boost Fintech innovation.
“The Financial Services Innovation Act of 2016, is part of the broader Innovation Initiative created by McHenry and House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy. HR 6188, will set up a regulatory framework that helps FinTech firms gain the access and flexibility they need to innovate.”
