I recently shared reports on FinTech leaders MercadoLibre Inc. $MELI ( ▲ 0.95% ) and Nu Holdings Ltd $NU ( ▲ 2.21% ) — innovators that are delivering dominant showings in their core markets across Latin America.
But as part of our search for the best FinTech companies, I created a list of 10 other financial-technology stocks that are work a look. Some of these companies — for instance, Mastercard Inc. $MA ( ▼ 0.37% ) — have intriguing storylines that we’ve brought you before.
Others are new.
This report is more of a summary — so we focused on the most-important data points: Market value, five-year growth projections for sales and profits and a simple summary of their businesses.
We present these in no particular order.
