Yet, tech-minded individuals seem to be entering financial spheres at high rates, signaling a shift in where many (especially millennials) are seeking to engage their tech talents. This change is largely due to both a change in mentality on the part of financial sector actors as well as the desire of tech talent to have job security. This is bolstered by most financial institutions moving past the financial crisis of 2008 and starting to open up in terms of transforming their own proprietary technology in order to make finance user-friendly.
