Fintech
Fintech continues to change financial services. The rules across the market are being rewritten—now with fintech at the centre.The lines between financial services providers and fintechs are blurred, and all need to work harder than ever to gain attention, differentiate, drive sales and navigate increased regulatory and media scrutiny.
Winner of the 2023 PRmoment Technology Agency of the Year, B2B Agency of the Year, and PRovoke EMEA Technology Consultancy of the Year, CCGroup has over 15 years of experience in helping ambitious fintechs meet their objectives.
Fintech knowledge & expertise
The financial services market today is very different from the one that saw the beginnings of fintech emerge from the 2008 financial crisis. Today, some fintechs are as established as the incumbents they looked to replace. The importance of technology in meeting business objectives means that every financial services business can fairly be described as a fintech.
The result is a complex market which is still exciting, but no longer new. As the market becomes more congested it is increasingly difficult to differentiate, cut through the noise and raise brand awareness. Just being an “innovative” fintech used to be enough. No longer.
The financial market is no longer governed by disruption, but by creating sustainable, systemic, and profitable businesses that deliver value to their customers and the wider economy. PR and marketing programmes today must not only enhance a business’s reputation but also deliver sales leads, lay the path to exit and help to manage risk.
Fintech approach
Fintechs need to create branding and messaging that will make them stand out and reach their target audience. The fintech market, though maturing, can still move fast, and positioning needs to reflect that. Yesterday’s USPs may no longer be unique—so what is the core message that will resonate with your audience? Is the branding correct for today’s market?
Every communication needs to have this messaging at its core so as to reach potential buyers, from one-off media relations engagements to full campaigns.

We build a strategy that is designed to meet our clients’ business objectives, determining what creatives, channels and tactics are best suited to building the brand, generating leads, and even securing investment or exit.

Challenges & opportunities
The fintech market has changed financial services in fundamental ways, and will continue to do so. But the maturity of the market today is very different from even a few years ago. Financial institutions and fintech providers are often partners as well as rivals, many fintechs are reporting profitability, and the sector has shown resilience against increased regulatory scrutiny, geopolitical instability and a downturn in investment.
As the market changes, so must the message. CCGroup provides the sector knowledge and the PR and marketing knowhow that can allow fintechs and other providers to showcase what makes them unique, and how they deliver value to their customers and wider stakeholders. The market may have changed, but the innovation and change continues. New technologies, new use cases, new regulations… all this change needs to be considered as context if brands want to reach their audience.
