Last year was a remarkable one for fintech funding, shooting up by a staggering 168% to reach $131.5 billion in 2021 compared to $49 billion in 2020, per CB Insights. Europe in particular was a hotbed of activity, with countless startups securing hundred million plus rounds. But where is this capital coming from and why?
