Local and foreign players compete to get a license from Bank Indonesia so they can run the business, investments to Fintech companies strikes gradually. On the contrary, as a new player in financial services industry, Fintech might also ‘threat’ and give future impacts on the existing provider, traditional banks. Fintech companies are able to perform services in a more efficient way for customers compared to conventional bank. Some findings have shown that Fintech affects or is changing the business model of banking industry associated with some considerable risks. Since the technology is still new, one of the key objectives is to understand whether FinTech will disrupt the financial services here in Indonesia or will collaborate with the existing providers. This study will analyse through relating research papers and other relevant secondary data produced by industry experts. The study also includes primary data collection through qualitative data analysis. A semi-structured interview will be conducted and will involve eleven respondents from industry expert within the financial services industry and FinTech and Indonesian regular financial services users.
