I thoroughly enjoyed the short videos and condensed information. The slides were concise and informative. I discovered that I'm not as interested in real estate technology, but fascinated by InsurTech and AI.

This course provides highlevel view and the business cases of the AI and other technologies in the FinTech and is a highly recommended course to understand the current scenarios and future business usecases.

Great course for an overarching overview into the world of Fintech, Blockchain and allied services. A good diving board to then dive deeper into any one or more of the specific subjects that are introduced.

This course gives an oversight of the various kinds of Financial Technology and how its being deployed by various firms in different areas of the financial industry

good intro and base level knowledge of the history and potential of Fintech in the insurance and real estate industry.

Great course as a part of whole FinTech specialization, but not as separate course.

Interesting development about the real estate

Good

It's a reasonable introduction. The assessments are a little dull, with too many questions about remembering which organisation said what about things like market size. Also, too many of the other answers are "all of the above".

It was a good overview but too much emphasis on market analysis and invested funds, rather than explanation of a the technology. Also, this market has changed and the course should be updated with more current information.

One of the videos was broken with text running over the professor. Some data are convincing but they don't really add to the understanding of the mechanics consisting knowledge. Also they are gradually outdated.

I wish it involved a lot more math, but as a freshman 101 to stuff like how Fin Tech industry is moving and evolving, the rules and regulations of the industry in the USA etc. are very interesting.

Interesting Topic

Professor speaks in perfect speed to explain models/theories/examples

More interaction with the student would be beneficial

Felt a little bit "thin" and repetitive, however does give a very high level overview of the topic

The course needs to be updated. Stats are from 2012/2018

Good case studies, but the content is still so general.

The material is a little scant in this course.

Interesting figures but nothing too specific. No business cases to make profound analysis or learn from different companies. If you want a very general view of the industry it might help you but I would not pay for this info. I'd try to complete it in the first free 7-days trail to avoid the charge.

Quite a disappointing course. Very superficial and name-dropping oriented, without providing much insight into the rationale for certain insurtech or RE-tech business models/ideas. Easily skippable course. Only exception are the two interviews to Wealthfront and Vanguard executives in week 4.

Interesting from a background perspective but thought it was too easy. It was akin to reading a number of generic articles. The interview with Vanguard was insightful but that was the only real different / informative knowledge imparted.

Christopher Geczy was reading scripts and looking at the notes below the camera most of the time. The two case studies in week4 are very useful, especially the Vanguard one. The course is generally okay, learned something overall.

This course lacks depth and scope.

US centric course (without a word of warning that it is non global one).

Slide Oriented and very theoretical
