Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on the 18th Edition of the International Conference CSIFA’2023 in Fintech, Digital Transformation and Financial Inclusion.
Fintech, with its blockchains and other related technologies, and the world of cryptocurrencies represent a new, dynamic, and rapidly evolving field in the industry, economics, and finance and, increasingly, in academia and research. It is transforming classic interactions in finance with an underlying decentralized structure of these technologies, which constitutes one of their fundamental concepts, so there is no place for privileged actors as in the traditional financial counterparts of these systems.
In this Special Issue, we encourage the submission of contributions that relate (but are not limited) to the following:
- Big data management (blockchain, artificial intelligence systems (e-Health, smart cities, e-biology, e-commerce, autonomous vehicles, etc.);
- Transparency, particularly in terms of the ethics of artificial intelligence;
- Public management: taxes or accounting and financial statements;
- Security and applicable law in the event of a dispute or the protection of personal data;
- The question of geopolitical issues and in terms of sovereignty of the blockchain;
- Solidarity and the social economy;
- Environmental impact of this technology and what are the least energy-consuming methods that can be reconciled with the ecological and energy transition and the management of companies.
The objective of this Special Issue is to bring together a series of innovative works in this emerging and growing field, at the border of natural and social sciences and engineering, in order to provide a landscape of research progress and potentials and applications in related fields.
